SS 317 hex bars/rods are commonly used in the industrial and construction sectors for their corrosion resistance and high strength. They are utilized in manufacturing chemical processing equipment, marine environments, heat exchangers, pumps, valves, fasteners, and structural components in corrosive conditions, ensuring durability and reliability.
SS 317 hex bars/rods typically range from 6 mm to 100 mm in size, with tolerances as per ASTM A276 or similar standards. Precise dimensions and tight tolerances ensure consistent strength, machinability, and fitment, making them ideal for high-performance applications in chemical, marine, and structural industries.
SS 317's chemical composition, with high levels of chromium (24-26%) and molybdenum (3-4%), enhances its resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion. The molybdenum content improves resistance to chloride-induced corrosion, while the balanced alloying helps prevent stress corrosion cracking, making it ideal for harsh, chloride-rich environments.
These Stainless Steel 317 Hex Bars and Rods are extensively utilized in industries that require high corrosion resistance and mechanical reliability. They are particularly well-suited for chemical processing equipment, heat exchangers, marine fittings, pharmaceutical machinery, and structural components that face aggressive environments. Their enhanced resistance to acids, chlorides, and oxidizing agents makes them ideal for offshore, coastal, and industrial facilities. Furthermore, 317 hex bars and rods find applications in pumps, valves, fasteners, and food processing equipment, where durability and hygienic surfaces are essential. Their combination of toughness and reliability truly sets them apart in the market.
We provide products that come with both mill test certificates and third-party test certificates, ensuring the highest standards of quality and compliance.
