Stainless Steel Round Rod
What is a Stainless Steel Round Rod?
Stainless steel is best known for its extreme corrosion resistance and ability to retain strength and shape under extreme temperatures, pressure, and impact. It also has a low susceptibility to brittleness at its melting point, making welding accurate and easy.
In construction, stainless steel rods support and stabilize buildings and other infrastructure projects. They are also used in machines for their strength, rust resistance, and longevity. Below, we elaborate more on the benefits and applications of stainless steel rods.
Benefits and Applications of
Stainless Steel Round Rod
17-4 Stainless Round
Our hot rolled 17-4 stainless steel rod combines martensitic properties with precipitation hardening treatment. This solid round stock delivers exceptional yield strength while maintaining effective corrosion resistance. The steel round bar is ideal for high-performance applications.
Common Applications: aerospace components, mechanical seals, pump shafts
T303 Stainless Round
Enhanced with sulfur and phosphorus, our T303 stainless round offers superior machinability among austenitic grades. This rolled steel provides excellent cutting performance, resulting in precise finishes and reduced tool wear. Available as round rods (drawn, smooth turned, ground, hot rolled) or custom-formed into square, hexagonal, or flat configurations.
Common Applications: bushings, gears, springs
T304 Stainless Round
The most versatile option in our stainless round bar inventory, T304 grade features optimized nickel and chromium content for outstanding corrosion resistance. This popular steel rod choice delivers reliable performance across diverse applications.
Common Applications: food processing equipment, architectural paneling, railings and trim
