SS 317 hex bars/rods are commonly used in the industrial and construction sectors for their corrosion resistance and high strength. They are utilized in manufacturing chemical processing equipment, marine environments, heat exchangers, pumps, valves, fasteners, and structural components in corrosive conditions, ensuring durability and reliability.
SS 317 hex bars/rods typically range from 6 mm to 100 mm in size, with tolerances as per ASTM A276 or similar standards. Precise dimensions and tight tolerances ensure consistent strength, machinability, and fitment, making them ideal for high-performance applications in chemical, marine, and structural industries.
SS 317's chemical composition, with high levels of chromium (24-26%) and molybdenum (3-4%), enhances its resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion. The molybdenum content improves resistance to chloride-induced corrosion, while the balanced alloying helps prevent stress corrosion cracking, making it ideal for harsh, chloride-rich environments.
You’ll find Stainless Steel 317 Hex Bars and Rods commonly used in settings where high resistance to corrosion and chemical exposure is crucial. They’re particularly suited for flue gas scrubbers, chemical and petrochemical processing equipment, pulp and paper mills, textile dyeing machinery, and food processing systems. The hexagonal shape not only adds strength but also makes handling easier during machining and structural applications. SS 317 is a go-to choice for marine and coastal applications due to its impressive resistance to saltwater corrosion. Its durability, high-temperature performance, and formability make it an excellent option for custom fabrication and welded assemblies in challenging operating conditions.
