Stainless Steel 316 Hex Bar/Rod is an austenitic stainless steel alloy that features chromium (16–18%), nickel (10–14%), and molybdenum (2–3%), which significantly enhances its resistance to corrosion, particularly in chloride-rich settings. It typically contains carbon up to 0.08% and showcases impressive mechanical strength, boasting a tensile strength of around 75 ksi (515 MPa), yield strength of about 30 ksi (205 MPa), and an elongation of roughly 40%. This alloy is known for its excellent formability, weldability, and resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion, and general chemical attack, making it a versatile choice for a wide range of industrial applications.

SS 316 Hex Bars/Rods are highly resistant to corrosion, especially in chloride-rich environments like marine settings. Their durability against pitting, crevice corrosion, and stress corrosion cracking makes them ideal for marine and chemical applications. Additionally, their high-temperature resistance and strength enhance performance in harsh conditions.
SS 316 Hex Bars/Rods are commonly used in industries such as marine, chemical processing, pharmaceuticals, food processing, and aerospace. Their superior corrosion resistance protects against rust, pitting, and chemical damage, making them ideal for harsh environments, ensuring longevity, reliability, and reduced maintenance costs in critical applications.
SS 316 Hex Bars/Rods can be easily welded and machined, but precautions are needed. During welding, pre-heating and post-weld heat treatment are recommended to prevent cracking. Use appropriate filler materials for optimal strength. For machining, ensure proper tooling to avoid work hardening and maintain smooth surfaces.
Stainless Steel 316 Hex Bars and Rods are commonly utilized in situations that require both strength and corrosion resistance. Their hexagonal shape is perfect for precision machining and fabrication. You’ll often find these bars and rods in marine components, food processing machinery, chemical tanks, and pharmaceutical equipment. Thanks to their outstanding resistance to saltwater and harsh chemicals, they thrive in tough environments. Industries like oil and gas, medical device manufacturing, and industrial engineering depend on 316 hex bars and rods for their durability, reliability, and long-lasting performance.
We provide products that come with both mill test certificates and third-party test certificates, ensuring the highest standards of quality and compliance.
