Stainless Steel 316L Round Bar

ASTM A276 316L Rod and AISI 316L bar suppliers in UAE

What is 316L Stainless Steel Round Bar?

Stainless steel 316l round bars is a low carbon austenitic steel grade. The stainless steel 316L round bar is designed with a circular cross section and provides support and stability to different applications. An ss 316l round bar is composed having a chemical content of chromium, nickel, molybdenum, and a few other constituting alloys.

This allows the 316l stainless steel round bar to have excellent resistance to corrosive affluents and oxidative reducers in harsh conditions. A 316l stainless steel bars has enhanced tolerance to chloride pitting and stress rupture. These bars are non-magnetic and can be welded following standard procedures.

AISI 316l bar has outstanding physical properties and outstanding tensile and yield strengths. Having a hardness of 217 Brinell, the stainless steel 316l rod can be machined at low speeds having constant feed rates. If they are machined quickly they tend to work harden. The 316l stainless steel round bar suppliers supply these bars in different dimensions. They are common in chemical processing, the food industry, the medical sector, petroleum refining, etc.

What is ASTM A276 ASTM A276 Type 316L & SA 479 316L?

ASTM A276 grade covers standard specifications of steel bars of different shapes. ASTM A276 Type 316L covers hot and cold finished bars except those that are used for reforging processes. The hot finished bars are processed at elevated temperatures and can easily shape the material.

ASTM A276 gr 316L cold rolled bar is manufactured at room temperature and has an outstanding surface finish and enhanced strength. The type ASTM A276 316L grade covers bars in shapes of squares, rounds, rectangular, hexagons, and other hot extruded shapes. ASTM A276 UNS S31603 threaded bar is the commonly used specification of 316l stainless steel.

These bars easily mate with subsequent thread to create a good sealing. The SA 479 gr 316L forged bar is produced at elevated temperatures as billets are passed through them. The bars of these grade cover both hot and cold finished stainless steel.
An SA 479 316L grade can covers stainless steel of 4 types namely ferritic, austenitic, austenitic-ferritic, and martensitic grades. The SA 479 tp 316L rectangular bars has a long flat cross section. These bars provide support and stability to different systems. The A479 Gr 316L cold drawn round bar is commonly used for boiler and pressure vessel construction.

Difference between Ground and Polished 316l stainless steel round bar?

Ground and polished 316lss round bar is a classification of finishing used on a round bar. Both these finishes are produced via the cold rolling processes. ASTM A479 Type 316L polished bar has a shiny smooth finish that adds a glow to the application. A ground finish has a slightly rough surface with slight waviness.
