Stainless Steel Bar Types – Low Maintenance, High-Reward Investment

Stainless steel round bars are trusted for their durability, strength, and versatility across countless industries.

These bar types are renowned for their excellent resistance to corrosion and oxidation, delivering a smooth and long-lasting surface finish. The chromium content—typically around 12%—plays a key role in corrosion resistance while also improving ductility, hardness, strength, workability, and formability.

Another advantage is sustainability. Stainless steel rods are 100% recyclable and recoverable, making them a cost-effective, eco-friendly choice. Many industries rely on stainless steel round bar stock in different forms, such as hot-rolled bars, cold-rolled bars, or precision-ground steel bars, to support a wide range of applications.

At Mozaic Precision Metals, we ensure stainless steel bar stock meets the highest standards of accuracy and finish. Through operations such as centerless grinding, saw cutting, turning, and polishing, our team delivers precision-engineered stainless steel bars tailored to your specifications.

Whether for manufacturing, construction, or high-performance equipment, Mozaic Precision Metals provides stainless steel round bars that combine low maintenance with high value — a smart investment for any industry.

Stainless Steel Grades

Stainless steel rods are produced in a wide range of grades, each engineered to deliver specific performance benefits. Choosing the right grade depends on the project requirements, including corrosion resistance, strength, and machinability.

304 Stainless Steel Rods
The most widely used grade, 304 offers excellent corrosion resistance and versatility. It is commonly found in construction, food processing, and medical equipment.

316 Stainless Steel Rods
With enhanced resistance to saltwater and harsh chemicals, 316 is the preferred choice for marine environments and applications exposed to corrosive substances.

410 Stainless Steel Rods
Known for good corrosion resistance and high strength, 410 is frequently used in fasteners, valves, and pump components.

416 Stainless Steel Rods
This grade provides outstanding machinability while maintaining solid corrosion resistance, making it ideal for parts requiring precision manufacturing.

440C Stainless Steel Rods
Chosen for high-wear applications such as knife blades and bearings, 440C offers exceptional hardness and strength.

17-4 PH Stainless Steel Rods
Engineered for demanding industries such as aerospace, chemical, and petrochemical, 17-4 PH delivers excellent corrosion resistance combined with superior strength.

At Mozaic Precision Metals, we help you identify the right stainless steel grade for your application and supply bars finished to exact specifications through precision grinding, cutting, and polishing services.
