Specifications

Metric bearing quality T303 stainless round bars are great for bearing shaft or metric applications. Also known as “free-machining” stainless, T303 has good non-seizing properties and is the most machinable of the chromium-nickel stainless grades. T303 has excellent corrosion resistance, but less than other grades such as T304 or T316. Its tensile strength and hardness can be increased by cold working. Slight magnetism can be detected by cold working.
