Isis Metals is a well-known Philippines-based manufacturer and exporter that offers premium-grade Stainless Steel 304 Hex Bars and Rods. They are highly valued for their high resistance to water-based and corrosive environments. The presence of elements such as molybdenum and copper improves their efficacy against reducing agents and acidic environments. Renowned for their excellent resistance against pitting, crevice corrosion, as well as oxidation, SS 304 Hex Bars exhibit superior protection in harsh industrial environments. As long-lasting, versatile, and good-looking materials, they can be conveniently utilized in chemical processing, marine, food processing, as well as construction industries.
SS 304 Hex Bars and Rods contain mostly iron with 18–20% chromium, 8–10.5% nickel, and small amounts of carbon, manganese, silicon, and molybdenum to achieve strength and corrosion resistance. The alloy possesses tensile strength of 515 MPa, yield strength of 205 MPa, and elongation of about 40% offering good ductility and toughness even at cryogenic conditions. Having a Brinell hardness of approximately 201 HBW, SS 304 provides strength, oxidation resistance, and dependability when exposed to both high temperature and corrosive environments.

Standard sizes for SS 304 hex bars/rods typically range from 1/8" to 6" in diameter. Custom sizes, lengths, and finishes are generally available upon request, depending on the supplier's capabilities and production methods.
SS 304 hex bars/rods can be welded and fabricated into complex shapes with relative ease. It offers good weldability, but pre-welding surface preparation and proper techniques are necessary to avoid distortion or degradation of material properties.
SS 304 offers good strength and corrosion resistance, suitable for many applications. Compared to other grades like SS 316, it has slightly lower corrosion resistance, especially in chloride environments, but SS 304 is more cost-effective and widely used.
Stainless Steel 304 Hex Bars and Rods find broad usage in applications where high resistance against corrosion, strength, and ductility are required. Typical applications involve food processing and pharmaceutical gear, chemical processing facilities, and sea-based components that come into contact with saltwater. These are also employed in construction for production of bolts, nuts, shafts, valves, and fittings, and in the automotive and aerospace industries for structural as well as precision components. SS 304 Hex Bars are also employed in kitchen equipment, architectural fittings, and heat exchangers because of their sanitary features, corrosion resistance, and durability to harsh environments.
We provide products that come with both mill test certificates and third-party test certificates, ensuring the highest standards of quality and compliance.
