Stainless Steel 321H Hollow Bars are an austenitic stainless steel grade that’s stabilized with titanium to prevent intergranular corrosion and boost high-temperature performance. Typically, their composition features 17–19% chromium, 9–12% nickel, 0.04–0.10% carbon, along with trace amounts of manganese, silicon, and titanium. These hollow bars are known for their excellent tensile strength, high-temperature stability, and good weldability. In terms of mechanics, they boast a tensile strength ranging from 515 to 750 MPa, a yield strength of about 205 to 275 MPa, and a hardness of approximately 170 to 200 HB. Their unique blend of durability, corrosion resistance, and thermal stability makes them perfect for various industrial and engineering applications.

SS 321H offers superior high-temperature strength and creep resistance due to its titanium stabilization, unlike SS 304 and SS 316. It excels in thermal stability, oxidation resistance, and prolonged high-temperature applications but has lower corrosion resistance than SS 316.
SS 321H hollow bars are widely used in industries like aerospace, petrochemical, power generation, and chemical processing. They are preferred for high-temperature applications due to their excellent thermal stability, oxidation resistance, and resistance to stress-induced cracking at elevated temperatures.
SS 321H hollow bars are typically available in diameters ranging from 25mm to 500mm, with tolerances conforming to ASTM or ISO standards. Common surface finishes include annealed, pickled, and polished, catering to various industrial and aesthetic requirements.
Stainless Steel 321H Hollow Bars find extensive use in situations that demand high-temperature resistance, corrosion protection, and structural integrity. They are commonly utilized in the manufacturing of heat exchangers, furnace components, chemical processing equipment, aerospace parts, and industrial machinery that operates under elevated temperatures. Their ability to resist intergranular corrosion, combined with excellent mechanical properties, makes them ideal for power plants, petrochemical industries, and high-temperature piping systems.
