What Is Stainless Steel?

Stainless steels are among the most widely used steel grades today thanks to their excellent corrosion resistance. They typically contain at least 10.5% chromium (Cr) and 1.2% carbon (C) or less. This composition forms a self-healing protective surface layer (the passive film), which provides durable resistance to corrosion.

What Is a Stainless Steel Hex Bar?

Also known as a stainless hexagon bar, it is manufactured from stainless round bar into a six-sided profile. Compared to round bars, production is more demanding and typically involves some material loss.

Applications

Commonly used in accessories, fasteners, and natural gas equipment.

Grade
Stainless steel grades are classified based on their properties and microstructure, including austenitic, ferritic, martensitic, and duplex types. Austenitic grades are the most widely used; ferritic grades are known for good resistance to stress corrosion cracking; martensitic grades can be heat-treated for higher strength and hardness; and duplex grades combine austenitic and ferritic structures for improved strength and corrosion resistance.: 303

Stainless Steel Standards

Stainless steels are used across nearly every industry and are available in a wide range of grades and standards—such as 303, 304, 304L, 316, 316L, 316Ti, 420, 430, 430F, and 431. The table below provides a brief description of each grade.

Grade	Description
201	A cost-effective grade chosen for its solid mechanical properties and good corrosion resistance. Commonly used for automotive wheel covers, window frames, doors and hinges, sinks, kitchen and restaurant equipment, ovens, refrigerators, and in food & beverage and dairy processing applications.
202	A cost-effective grade chosen for its solid mechanical properties and good corrosion resistance. Commonly used for automotive wheel covers, window frames, doors and hinges, sinks, kitchen and restaurant equipment, ovens, refrigerators, and in food & beverage and dairy processing applications.
204
301
303	Often referred to as "free-machining" stainless steel. Thanks to its sulfur content, it offers excellent machinability; however, sulfur reduces corrosion resistance, so it performs below grade 304 in corrosive environments.
304	One of the most widely used stainless steel grades, valued for its excellent price-to-performance balance. It combines strong mechanical properties, good weldability, and reliable corrosion/oxidation resistance. It performs very well at low temperatures and responds excellently to work hardening, with oxidation resistance up to approximately 600–650°C. Common applications include chemical and petrochemical industries, food processing, kitchens, automotive, plumbing and sanitary systems, medical equipment, elevator cabins, and decorative finishes.
304L	A low-carbon version of grade 304. While it can be more challenging to machine, it is well-suited for welded applications and typically has slightly lower mechanical properties than standard 304.
308
308S
309
310
310S
309S
316	An alloyed grade produced by adding nickel (Ni) and molybdenum (Mo). This composition delivers high corrosion resistance even in harsh environments such as seawater and acidic media, and offers higher tensile strength than grade 304. It is oxidation-resistant up to around 850°C and provides strong mechanical performance. Typical uses include steam boilers in the chemical, petrochemical, and food industries, juice and liqueur production, textile machinery, and meat-processing units.
316L	A low-carbon version of grade 316 that typically does not require post-weld annealing in thicker sections. It is a good choice for welded assemblies where heat exposure can increase the risk of corrosion.
316TI	A titanium-stabilized grade with approximately 0.5% titanium (Ti). When the material will be exposed to elevated temperatures for extended periods—typically in the 550–800°C range—316Ti is recommended.
321	Provides high oxidation resistance at elevated temperatures up to about 900°C, with very good mechanical strength and wear resistance. Commonly used for printing blades, exhaust systems, salt-processing machinery, and in chemical and petrochemical applications.
409
410
420	Known for its high strength. Under normal conditions it offers good corrosion resistance, and in the annealed condition it also provides good machinability.
420L
430	A low-carbon, chromium-containing ferritic grade with limited weldability. Because it does not contain nickel (Ni) or molybdenum (Mo), it is more economical than 300-series stainless steels. It offers a good surface appearance and is magnetic, with strong oxidation resistance up to around 550–600°C. Commonly used in dry environments, automotive accessories, and decorative applications.
430F	A sulfur-containing variant designed for improved machinability compared to grade 430. The added sulfur can slightly reduce corrosion resistance.
431	A stainless steel grade containing both chromium and nickel. With heat treatment, it can achieve very high resistance to fracture and tensile loading. It conducts heat well, is suitable for polishing, and maintains a good surface finish even in high-temperature environments.
439
Duplex
