316 stainless steel rope 0.5mm diameter
(OP)
Is there anybody out there that knows about manufacturing very fine 316 stainless steel rope. The 'rope' diameter is 0.5mm and has to be made from 7 strands (i.e. each strand 0.07mm diameter). The quantity required is approximately 900,000 metres and has to be supplied in the form of 30m long lengths x 30,000 off. The rope has to be pre-stretched to remove its initial constructional extension. The end user (a famous artist)has stated that the wire needs to be in a state so that when a weight is placed on the rope and then removed, the rope returns to the same length as before, i.e. no non-elastic extension.
