Long, hexagon-shaped hex rods are typically made of stainless steel. These stainless steel hex rod are frequently made from stainless steel grades such as 303, 304/L, 316/L, 410, 416, and 440C. These bars typically come in sizes ranging from 3/16" to 3" in.
The austenitic or ferritic grades of stainless steel could be used to make hexagonal stainless steel rods, depending on their intended use. For instance, austenitic stainless steel grades have better corrosion resistance. Therefore, stainless hex rod is used in applications that demand a high level of corrosion resistance. When a magnetic, wear-resistant, superior resistive, harder, and more durable stainless steel is required, hexagon stainless steel bars are made from ferritic grades.
The majority of these weight-bearing hexagonal stainless steel bars are used in the construction industry. The stainless hex rod is used to fabricate any other significant structural material, such as I beams, H beams, and C beams, because it can be made in custom sizes. Stainless hex rod is used extensively in the majority of engineering industries because of its wide range of applications. From the automotive, cement, heavy earth moving equipment, shipbuilding, paper and pulp, textile, fabrication, and aerospace industries, to name a few.
