Alloy 304V is a double melted austenitic stainless steel wire. The alloy is initially electric-arc melted followed by a Vacuum Arc Re-melt (VAR). This melting practice minimizes voids and contaminants while yielding a more uniform chemistry. This refinement to the purity and homogeneity of the metal allows for use in high reliability products
