Available Grades

Stainless steel hexagon bars are solid bars with a hexagonal cross-section, commonly used in applications requiring high strength, corrosion resistance, and durability. They are available in various grades, including 304, 316, and 316L, with 316 stainless steel being particularly popular for its enhanced corrosion resistance due to the addition of molybdenum.

304/304L Stainless Steel Hex Bar

304/304L Hex Bar

Grade 304/304L provides a balance of strength, corrosion resistance, and weldability, making it suitable for a wide range of applications, including automotive parts, kitchen equipment, and architectural components.

316 Stainless Steel Hexgon Bar

36 MM STAINLESS STEEL HEXAGON BAR 316 / 316L

316/316L Hexgon Bar

Stainless Steel Hexgon Bar 316/316L With enhanced corrosion resistance, especially against chlorides and other industrial solvents, this grade is commonly used in marine environments, chemical processing equipment, and medical devices.

316 stainless steel hexagon bars are a popular choice for applications requiring excellent corrosion resistance, high strength, and durability.

416 Stainless Steel Hex Bar

Stainless Steel Hexagon Bar 416 (1.4005)

Stainless Steel 416 is a type of martensitic stainless steel that is renowned for its excellent machinability and corrosion resistance. Stainless Steel 416 Hex Bar is a widely used product made from this steel, and it is employed in a variety of industrial applications. The Stainless Steel 416 Hex Bar is available in different sizes and diameters. Stainless Steel 416 is a type of martensitic stainless steel with excellent machinability and corrosion resistance.

Stainless Steel 416 Hex Bar is a widely used product made from this steel. It is used in various industrial applications for which high strength, good machinability and resistance to corrosion are essential.

  • Some common applications of Stainless Steel 416 Hex Bar include the manufacture of gears, bolts, nuts, studs and other machine parts.
  • Stainless Steel 416 Hex Bar is also known for its excellent heat treatment properties, which make it easy to harden and temper to achieve the desired mechanical properties.

Cut to Size

We will cut your hexagon bar to exact lengths and tight tolerances in-house, courtesy of our central warehousing facility. We also perform processing services throughout our dedicated service centre network.

Stainless Steel Hexagon Bar 316/316L is a hexagonal shaped 316/316L Stainless Steel Alloy bar.

316 Stainless Steel Alloy is a standard molybdenum-bearing grade, the second most commonly sought after grade next to grade 304 amongst the austenitic stainless steels.

The molybdenum gives 316 better overall corrosion resistant properties than Grade 304, particularly higher resistance in chloride environments.

Grade 316L (L= low carbon) ) is the same as 316 except it has an extra-low-carbon analysis, the advantage of which is that it precludes any harmful precipitation in the 800º F to 1500º F range that might result from welding heavier sections. Therefore 316L is extensively used in heavy gauge welded components.
