SS 304L Black Square Bar About
SS 304L is the low-carbon version of SS 304. Its reduced carbon content improves resistance to sensitization and intergranular corrosion after welding, making it particularly useful for welded fabrications.
Applications: Welded tanks, pipelines, pressure vessels, food-processing equipment, chemical equipment, heat exchangers and architectural structures.
Exceptional Formability and DurabilitySS 304L Black Square Bar offers excellent formability and weldability, making it a preferred choice for demanding engineering and fabrication projects. Its mechanical characteristics, such as up to 40% elongation at 50mm and tensile strength ranging from 510 to 740 MPa, guarantee robust performance and longevity even in challenging industrial environments.
Reliable Corrosion and Heat ResistanceManufactured with precise low carbon content and high chromium and nickel ratios, the 304L Black Square Bar delivers superior corrosion resistance and reliable service at temperatures up to 870C (1600F). The black finish enhances its durability, rendering it ideal for both indoor and outdoor applications where exposure to harsh conditions is common.
Flexible Sizing and Fast DeliveryAvailable in a wide variety of sizes, including 10mm to 50mm and custom dimensions, these bars cater to unique project requirements. With ready-to-ship stock or on-order options and flexible packaging-from loose bundles to wooden boxes-you're assured of timely delivery and tailored solutions for your application needs.
