904L stainless steel round bar

904L round bar and ASTM B649 904L rod suppliers in UAE

What is 904L stainless steel round bar?

With so many austenitic SS alloys already in the market, strong material is always required to sustain in chemical processing plants. The grade 904L Stainless Steel Round Bar is a non-stabilized variant produced in a circular shape.

It has low carbon but high nickel, chromium, molybdenum, silicon, copper, phosphorus, and sulfur content. This unique composition enables the bar to withstand an extremely corrosive and oxidative atmosphere.

The 904L round bar is versatile and non-corrosive even when exposed to sulfuric acid. High strength, toughness, weldability, and formability are other attractive traits. It follows traditional welding methods and does not have to undergo pre-heating either.

Is 904L stainless steel bar magnetic?

904L comes under an austenitic alloy group made of a very low amount of carbon which will resist corrosion and decay very well. Petrochemical and marine applications in general value stainless steel 904L round bar for zero magnetic behavior. It is mainly due to the presence of a high amount of alloying elements like molybdenum and nickel.

This exclusive product range also covers ASTM B649 steel 904L bars. These bars carry non-magnetic properties all throughout and suit industrial usage for no magnetic significance. The addition of non-magnetic components in the bars’ structural design is the primary reason that they don’t inherit any magnetic activity.

DIN 1.4539 rod and stainless steel 904L round bar with Material test certificate

DIN 1.4539 rod installation

En grade 904L rod is made from nonferric and nonmagnetic steel sheets or plates and cold hardened before being cut into specific lengths and surface areas. DIN 1.4539 rod installation often takes place in different varieties when needed to fix plumbing materials like filters, valves, flanges, etc.

From industrial and medical to various piping and wiring systems, SS 904L rod products are available for quick installation and enhanced productivity. UNS N08904 hot rolled bar is another recommended variety coming with perfect precision and corrosion sustenance in the lab and mechanical plants.

Labeled as an austenitic steel material, the installation of DIN 1.4539 threaded rod is mostly seen in acidic environments, chemical processing, architectural railings, linings, etc.

What is stainless steel 904L round bar used for?

Austenitic Stainless steel 904L is high in demand for being low in carbon, durable, tough, and corrosion resistive in severe acidic setups. Whether it is SS 904L bar or rod, heat, oxidation, and corrosion resistance are the ultimate features delivered.

From boiling in sulfuric acid and exposure to chloride compounds to stress corrosion cracking, the SS 904L rod excels in all. It finds applications beyond commercial and industrial fields.

For corrosion resistance in oil and gas, petrochemicals, pharma, or bleaching-related activities, the Stainless Steel 904L bar becomes the preferred choice. It is also used in tanks, pressure relief/control valves, flanges, centrifugal pumps, heat exchangers, etc.

What is 904L round bar hardness?

904L SS is non-ferric and ensures excellent hardness and weldability due to a good amount of alloying components like nickel and molybdenum. The best method to measure 904L round bar hardness is to take a dig at its Rockwell value which goes below 95 and lies between 70 to 90. Hence, it will be hard enough and capable to resist scratches

Moreover, 904L grade steel has a Brinell hardness score equal to 150, which is not so low. It shows that the 904L round bar will be hard enough to survive in acid-induced corrosive environments.
