Sooo, it is like a needle in haystack to find SS wire here in good ole Canada.
After many a hours searching the net for not only GREAT quality wire but a decent price:
I found the SS Wire unicorn.

Here:
SAFETY WIRE - STAINLESS STEEL - 1 LB SPOOL from Aircraft Spruce

Ya. It is 302/304 'grade' I called up my father in law whom is an electrician to ask him

**answers have been written in plain english terms**

1) what the difference is?
-Not much at all. Sinks/cutlery/pots/pans ect use this grade often.

2) will I die / blow up if I use it?
-it is used at much higher temperatures...No.

I just got my wire, WOW, so fast, couple days?
BUT, I goofed up real bad. I ordered 0.032 in stead of 0.32
Guess they dont offer .32 :(

Dang, I dont use such thick wire. Oh well, make sure to pay attention to the decimal points :)
As you can see , there is a BIG difference. When I anxiously took it out of the package and saw the loop, I thought it was a paper clip.....

Nope.

That would be a mistake of information given to you. I received mine as well and ya... No coils will be made with this wire.
I actually ended up calling them thinking there was an error only to find out: converting incorrectly.

I do need to apologize to you.
I am very sorry :(
