Stainless medical rack needing high corrosion resistance. Part is immersed in hot water for long periods.

From Able Electropolishing Company, Inc.

This wire rack is used to hold heat packs for use in sports
medicine. The customer was looking to improve corrosion resistance of the
wire form beyond the normal corrosion specifications of the alloy. The rack
is immersed in 120-degree water constantly and the wire parts cannot
show any sign of corrosion through normal use.
