Stainless Hex Bar 304 Metric offers a great mix of strength and corrosion resistance in most situations outside of marine environments. If your project is in a marine environment, choose 316 stainless. 304, the most popular stainless alloy in the world, maintains its properties in high temperature situations. It is typically used in aerospace, food and beverage industry, pressure containers, architectural designs and trim, cryogenic applications, and chemical processing equipment.

Mechanical Properties
Chemistry Information : 304 Stainless Steel
This product is a hexagonal bar with an across flats measurement of 22mm and a maximum length of 60 inches. It is made from 304 stainless steel and has an annealed temper.
No, this 304 stainless steel hex bar offers good corrosion resistance in most environments but is not recommended for marine applications. For marine use, 316 stainless steel is preferred.
Custom cutting is not available from the warehouse for this product, but a Material Test Report (MTR) is available upon request.
304 stainless steel hex bars are typically used in aerospace, food and beverage processing, pressure containers, architectural designs, cryogenic applications, and chemical processing equipment due to their strength and corrosion resistance.
The bar has a machinability rating of 40 and an ultimate tensile strength of 85 ksi, making it strong and reasonably easy to machine for various manufacturing needs.
