Semih Metals is a leading manufacturer and exporter of Stainless Steel 304L Hex Bars/Rods, known for their exceptional resistance to water-based environments. The addition of molybdenum and copper in SS 304 Hexagon Bars enhances their durability against reducing agents and acidic conditions. Grade 304 Hex Bars offer superior resistance to localized corrosion, such as pitting and crevice corrosion. Furthermore, Type 304 Hex Bars provide excellent protection against oxidizing agents like nitric acid and nitrates. Stainless Steel UNS S30400 Hex Bars demonstrate outstanding resistance to acid reduction and oxidation, minimizing the risk of fractures and localized damage, including pitting and crevice corrosion. The versatility of Stainless Steel 1.4301 Hexagon Bars makes them widely applicable in diverse environments.
SS 304L Hex Bars/Rods are made of basic steel with 18–20% chromium, 8–12% nickel, maximum 0.03% carbon, to ensure excellent corrosion resistance Other components include manganese, silicon, phosphorus, sulfur and nitrogen. Technically, SS 304L provides a minimum yield strength of 485 MPa, a minimum yield strength of 170 MPa, and 40% elongation in 2 inches. It has a hardness of about 95 HBW (Brinell Hardness). The excellent ductility, hardness and weldability of the alloy, as well as its resistance to oxidation and local corrosion, make it ideal for complex applications in a variety of industries

SS 304L hex bars/rods are typically available in sizes ranging from 3.17mm to 350mm in diameter, with lengths of 2 to 7.5 meters. These bars come in various finishes, such as polished or cold-drawn. Custom sizes and specifications can also be produced upon request to meet specific needs.
Yes, SS 304L hex bars/rods are highly weldable and suitable for fabrication into complex shapes. Their low carbon content minimizes carbide precipitation during welding, reducing the risk of corrosion. This material's excellent ductility and toughness allow easy forming, machining, and fabrication, making it ideal for intricate designs and applications.
SS 304L has lower carbon content than standard 304, reducing carbide precipitation and enhancing corrosion resistance, particularly after welding. While slightly lower in strength compared to higher-carbon grades like 304 or 316, it maintains excellent toughness and durability. SS 316 offers superior corrosion resistance in chloride environments due to added molybdenum.
SS 304 Hex Bars/Rods are widely used in applications requiring high strength, corrosion resistance and durability. Typical applications include manufacturing processes for food processing equipment, pharmaceuticals, pharmaceuticals and the marine environment. It is also used in construction for parts such as bolts, nuts, shafts, valves and fittings, and in the automotive and aerospace industries. In addition, SS 304 Hex Bars are ideal for construction applications such as gloves, accessories, and kitchen appliances. Their resistance to oxidation and acids makes them suitable for harsh environments and high temperature applications.
