Semih Metals is a leading supplier of stainless steel 420 hex bars, offering a wide range of versatility. Our SS 420 Hex Bars are made from high carbon steel with low chromium content. This product is a general-purpose, medium-carbon, straight chromium martensitic stainless steel, known for good hardness and reasonable corrosion resistance Compared to Alloy 410 Hex Bars, we The Alloy 420 Hex Bars have a high carbon content , which increases strength and rigidity. Grade 420 hex bars exhibit absolute corrosion resistance under extreme conditions. Although good ductility is maintained in the annealed state, they can harden up to 50 HRC. Generally, temperatures above 700°F are not indicated. For welding, these rods must first be heated prior to the operation and then annealed. The maximum corrosion resistance of our Type 420 Hex Bars is achieved when it is fully or completely hardened and the stress is released.
Stainless Steel 420 Hex Bars are composed primarily of 12-14% chromium, with higher carbon content (0.15-0.40%) compared to Alloy 410, providing enhanced hardness and strength. It also contains trace elements like manganese, silicon, and phosphorus. The mechanical properties include a tensile strength of 750-1150 MPa, yield strength of 205-450 MPa, and elongation of 12-18%. In the hardened condition, SS 420 offers excellent hardness, reaching up to 50 HRC, with good corrosion resistance. Its impact resistance is moderate, and it demonstrates excellent wear and abrasion resistance when hardened.

SS 420 stainless steel is a martensitic grade known for its high strength, hardness, and moderate corrosion resistance. Its ability to be heat-treated enhances these properties, making it ideal for Hex Bar applications requiring durability, wear resistance, and precise machining.
The Hex Bar shape offers improved grip, stability, and easier alignment during machining or fabrication. It reduces rotation and slippage, allowing for more accurate cuts and efficient handling, especially when working with the hard, durable SS 420 stainless steel.
SS 420 Hex Bars are commonly used in applications requiring high wear resistance, such as shafts, valves, and tools. Its ability to be heat-treated for superior hardness and strength makes it ideal for demanding environments compared to other stainless steel grades.
SS 420 Hex Bars are widely used in applications requiring high strength, hardness and moderate corrosion resistance. Typical applications include the manufacture of molds, surgical instruments, valves, shafts and pump parts. They are also ideal for tools and utensils that resist corrosion of knives, scissors and glass. The materials are used in the automotive, aerospace and aerospace industries for engine parts, gears and fasteners. SS 420 Hex Bars are suitable for corrosion-prone areas, especially in harsh or extreme conditions for excellent performance.
