SS 317L Hex Bars/Rods are commonly used in chemical processing, marine environments, pharmaceuticals, and food processing due to their excellent corrosion resistance and high strength. They are ideal for handling aggressive chemicals, including sulfuric acid, bleaching solutions, and pulp liquor. In construction, they are used for structural components and fittings.
SS 317L Hex Bars/Rods typically range from 6 mm to 100 mm in diameter, with lengths up to 6 meters. Tolerances generally conform to ±0.5 mm for diameter. These dimensions and tolerances ensure precision for machining, making them ideal for applications requiring high strength, corrosion resistance, and tight fit.
The high chromium (18-20%) and molybdenum (3-4%) content in SS 317L enhances its resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion by forming a passive oxide layer that protects against chloride-induced degradation. The low carbon content further reduces the risk of stress corrosion cracking, ensuring durability in harsh chloride environments.
Stainless Steel 317L Hex Bars and Rods find extensive application in industries that require high corrosion resistance and mechanical reliability. In the chemical and petrochemical fields, they are perfect for piping systems, reactor vessels, and heat exchangers that come into contact with aggressive chemicals. In marine settings, they are used in seawater handling equipment and offshore structures. Furthermore, they play a crucial role in power generation, pharmaceuticals, and food processing industries, where durability, chemical resistance, and long-lasting performance are essential. At Starc Metals, we ensure that our Stainless Steel 317L Hex Bars and Rods are precision-engineered to meet the highest standards.
We provide products that come with both mill test certificates and third-party test certificates, ensuring the highest standards of quality and compliance.
