With a strong emphasis on reliability, timely delivery, and customer-focused solutions, Hemi Metals proudly supports industries like petrochemical, marine, fabrication, and power generation with high-quality stainless steel components.
Stainless Steel 317L Hex Bars and Rods boast a higher molybdenum content, usually between 3–4%, along with chromium (18–20%), nickel (11–15%), and a lower carbon content to enhance weldability. This unique composition significantly boosts resistance to pitting, acidic environments, and chloride-induced corrosion. On the mechanical side, 317L provides excellent tensile strength, good yield strength, and impressive creep resistance, making it perfect for high-temperature and corrosive applications. The alloy also maintains good ductility, formability, and hardness, ensuring stability during machining and fabrication. Its low carbon content helps prevent carbide precipitation during welding, further enhancing structural integrity.

SS 317L Hex Bars/Rods are commonly used in chemical processing, marine environments, pharmaceuticals, and food processing due to their excellent corrosion resistance and high strength. They are ideal for handling aggressive chemicals, including sulfuric acid, bleaching solutions, and pulp liquor. In construction, they are used for structural components and fittings.
SS 317L Hex Bars/Rods typically range from 6 mm to 100 mm in diameter, with lengths up to 6 meters. Tolerances generally conform to ±0.5 mm for diameter. These dimensions and tolerances ensure precision for machining, making them ideal for applications requiring high strength, corrosion resistance, and tight fit.
The high chromium (18-20%) and molybdenum (3-4%) content in SS 317L enhances its resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion by forming a passive oxide layer that protects against chloride-induced degradation. The low carbon content further reduces the risk of stress corrosion cracking, ensuring durability in harsh chloride environments.
Stainless Steel 317L Hex Bars and Rods find extensive use in industries that demand exceptional corrosion resistance and reliability in extreme conditions. They are commonly utilized in chemical processing equipment, textile machinery, marine fittings, refinery components, and food processing systems. Their superior resistance to chlorides makes them particularly well-suited for desalination plants, coastal structures, and pollution control devices. Additionally, these bars and rods are employed in various applications where durability and performance are critical, ensuring they meet the rigorous standards of modern industry.
We provide products that come with both mill test certificates and third-party test certificates, ensuring the highest standards of quality and compliance.
