    Highly Corrosion-Resistant 316 Stainless Steel Hex Bars

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Stainless Steel. Highly Corrosion-Resistant 316 Stainless Steel Hex Bars.
    One of the most corrosion-resistant stainless steels, 316 withstands harsh chemicals, including bleach, chlorine, and phosphoric acid. Use these bars to create standoffs, pipe fittings, fasteners, and valves in marine and chemical-processing environments. Their molybdenum content gives them better chloride resistance than 304 while offering similar strength and heat tolerance. They have a hexagonal shape that allows for efficient torque transmission and smooth wrenching for precision fastening. Made to ASTM A484 or EN 10088-3 specifications to fit standard hex sockets and tools, these bars make parts that are easy to grab and tighten. They resist corrosion at temperatures up to 1500° F.
    316/316L Stainless Steel—Dual certified to meet both 316 and 316L requirements. The low carbon content makes this stainless steel easy to weld while maintaining strength and corrosion resistance.

    Multipurpose 304 Stainless Steel Hex Bars

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Stainless Steel. Multipurpose 304 Stainless Steel Hex Bars.
    The most common stainless steel, 304 is a good all-around choice for corrosion resistance in a wide range of applications. Use these bars to create standoffs, pipe fittings, fasteners, and valve bodies. They have a hexagonal shape that allows for efficient torque transmission and smooth wrenching. Made to ASTM A484 or EN 10088-3 specifications to fit standard hex sockets and tools, these bars make parts that are easy to grab and tighten. They resist corrosion at temperatures up to 1500° F.
    304/304L Stainless Steel—This dual-certified stainless steel meets both 304 and 304L requirements. Its low carbon content improves weldability while retaining corrosion resistance and strength.
