316 Stainless Steel Bars Manufacture

What are 316 Stainless Steel Bars?

316 stainless steel bars are solid metal bars made from an austenitic chromium-nickel-molybdenum alloy that provides enhanced corrosion resistance, particularly against chlorides, acids, and seawater. These bars are ideal for critical applications in marine engineering, chemical processing, food & pharma, oil & gas, and high-moisture environments.
