303 Hexagonal and Square Bars Applications, Specifications & Manufacturing Process


 Grade 303 is a type of stainless steel alloy that falls into the austenitic category. Stainless steel 303 hexagonal and square bars are popular materials used in various applications due to their excellent machinability and corrosion resistance. Here are some key points to know about these bars.

Stainless Steel 303 Hexagonal Bars

⦁ 303 stainless steel hexagonal bars are made of chromium-nickel stainless steel with added sulfur and phosphorus to improve machinability and non-seizing properties.

⦁ They are corrosion-resistant to atmospheric elements and many chemicals.

⦁ The sulfur component in 303 stainless steel hexagonal bars helps improve turning breakup while simultaneously reducing cutting tool drag.

Stainless Steel 303 Square Bars

⦁ 303 stainless steel square bars can resist scaling at up to 871°C[4].

⦁ Compared to conventional stainless steel square bars, the sulfur component helps improve turning breakup and reduce cutting tool drag.

⦁ Square bars made with 303 stainless steel are useful for parts that require sufficient corrosion resistance and need to be machined, ground, or polished.

Complete Detaied Guide For 303 Austenitic Stainless Steel Bars

Alloy 303 is a non-magnetic, austenitic stainless steel that is not hardenable by heat treatment. It is the free machining modification of the basic 18% chromium / 8% nickel stainless steel. Alloy 303 was specially designed to exhibit improved machinability while maintaining good mechanical and corrosion-resistant properties Due to the presence of sulfur in the steel composition, Alloy 303 is the most readily machineable austenitic stainless steel; however, the sulfur addition does lower Alloy 303’s corrosion resistance to below that of Alloy 304. Like other austenitic grades, Alloy 303 demonstrates excellent toughness, although the sulfur does reduce this a little as well. Ni - 9.00, Cr-18.00, Fe-Balance, Si -1.00, Mn-2.00, C - 0.120,  P-0.040, S - 0.030 Key Properties These properties are specified for the long product (bar) in ASTM A582. Similar but not necessarily identical properties are specified for other products such as wire and forgings in the...

Stainless Steel Applications And Performance in Marine Industry

  Marine industries have a highly demanding environment that requires materials that can withstand the corrosive effects of saltwater and other harsh conditions.  A material that can provide the best resistance and performance under the ocean surface. Wondering what it is? It’s Stainless steel!  Even after a few numbers of materials labels themselves as the best materials for marine applications, Stainless Steel has always overshadowed them with its quality performance.  The reason why Stainless steel is the best choice for marine applications is it doesn’t corrode and weaken in the presence of water or oxidation over time. Stainless has an exceptional ability to survive the salinity of seawater along with harsh sunlight.  Keep reading to learn more about why stainless steel is widely used for marine applications, what type of stainless steel grade to choose from, and a lot more. Why Use Stainless Steel In Marine Applications? Before jumping on Stainless Steel u...
