Stainless Steel 455 Bars and Rods are a type of martensitic stainless steel recognized for their high strength, hardness, and outstanding corrosion resistance. Typically, their composition features 13–15% chromium, 0.2–0.3% carbon, along with trace amounts of manganese, silicon, and molybdenum. These bars and rods can be heat-treated, which enhances their hardness and wear resistance. In terms of mechanical properties, they showcase a tensile strength ranging from 850 to 1100 MPa, a yield strength of about 450 to 650 MPa, and a hardness between 250 and 350 HB. These characteristics make them perfect for components that require durability, toughness, and dependable performance in challenging or moderately corrosive environments.
