We take pride in being a leading manufacturer and supplier of Stainless Steel 446 Bars and Rods, delivering top-notch products that can handle extreme temperatures and harsh environments. Stainless Steel 446 is a ferritic, heat-resistant alloy known for its high chromium content, which gives it remarkable resistance to oxidation and scaling, even at temperatures reaching 1100°C. This makes it perfect for applications that require long-term exposure to high heat and corrosive conditions. Our 446 bars and rods are meticulously crafted for exceptional dimensional accuracy, a smooth surface finish, and reliable mechanical performance, catering to industries like power generation, petrochemicals, furnace construction, and thermal processing, where heat stability and durability are essential.
Stainless Steel 446 Bars and Rods generally consist of 23–27% chromium, with a low carbon content (maximum 0.20%) and trace amounts of manganese, silicon, sulfur, and phosphorus. This unique blend ensures outstanding resistance to oxidation, sulfidation, and scaling at elevated temperatures. The mechanical properties include a tensile strength of about 485 MPa, yield strength around 275 MPa, elongation of roughly 20%, and Brinell hardness reaching up to 217. Being ferritic, it remains magnetic under all conditions and boasts good thermal conductivity with minimal thermal expansion. The alloy retains its structural integrity even in extreme heat cycles and corrosive industrial environments.
