STAINLESS STEEL RODS & BARS

At Bansal Metals Pvt. Ltd. explore high-quality Stainless Steel Rods available in popular grades 303, 304, and 316, ideal for a wide range of industrial, architectural, and construction applications. Grade 303 offers excellent machinability and corrosion resistance, making it perfect for complex machining tasks. Grade 304, known for its versatility, combines outstanding strength, durability, and resistance to rust and corrosion, suitable for various uses in food processing, chemical, and pharmaceutical industries. Grade 316 provides superior corrosion resistance, especially in marine and chemical environments, thanks to its added molybdenum content, making it the preferred choice for harsh conditions. 

Our Stainless Steel rods come in various sizes and finishes, ensuring optimal performance, reliability, and longevity for your specific requirements. Whether you need rods for precision machining, structural projects, or high-temperature applications, we offer solutions to meet your needs with unparalleled quality and service.

1.Composition and Properties :

    • Stainless steel rods are typically made from an alloy of iron, carbon, and a minimum of 10.5% chromium content. Other elements such as nickel, manganese, and molybdenum are often added to enhance specific properties.
    • They possess high corrosion resistance, making them suitable for use in harsh environments, including marine and chemical industries.
    • Stainless steel rods exhibit excellent mechanical properties, including high tensile strength, toughness, and ductility.
    • These rods can withstand extreme temperatures and are resistant to scaling and oxidation at elevated temperatures.

2. Manufacturing Process :

    • Stainless steel rods are manufactured through hot rolling, cold drawing, or extrusion processes.
    • In the hot rolling process, stainless steel ingots are heated above their recrystallization temperature and passed through rollers to achieve the desired diameter.
    • Cold drawing involves pulling the stainless steel through a series of dies to reduce its diameter and improve surface finish.
    • Extrusion involves forcing the stainless steel through a die to produce rods with complex cross-sectional profiles.

3. Types of Stainless Steel Rods :

    • Round Bars and Rods: These are the most common type and are available in various diameters. They are widely used in construction, manufacturing, and engineering applications.
    • Square Bars: Square stainless steel bars have equal side lengths and are often used in architectural and decorative applications.
    • Hexagonal Bars: Hexagonal stainless steel bars have six sides and are preferred in applications requiring precise alignment and torque transmission, such as machinery and fasteners.
    • Flat Bars: Flat stainless steel bars have a rectangular cross-section and are utilized in construction, fabrication, and structural applications.
