Chung Metal Manufacturer & Suppliers in Da Nang, Vietnam, supplies Alloy Steel F12 Bars and Rods for purposes where moderate strength and operational dependability are needed. F12, commonly employed in petrochemical, power generation, and power plant equipment, is supplied with satisfactory dimensional tolerances, certified chemistry, and dependable mechanical properties. With rigorous process controls and metallurgical checks, Chung Metal guarantees F12 rods perform as expected. Boiler engineering clients, turbine parts, sealing devices and heat exchangers use our F12 stock for parts exposed to high temperatures and cyclic stress. We have size alternatives and finishes to suit a wide range of project requirements.
Alloy Steel F12 is a low alloy steel — approximately equivalent to other creep-strength enhanced ferritic/martensitic steels — containing additions such as chromium, molybdenum, perhaps tungsten or vanadium, as specified. Exact composition also varies with supplier. Usually tensile strength is in moderate range (≈450‑600 MPa), yield perhaps 250‑400 MPa, with elongation ~15‑25%. Hardness is a function of heat treatment, but less than high‑chrome martensitic steels. It provides reasonable creep resistance, thermal stability up to moderate high temperatures (several hundred °C), and acceptable weldability with suitable pre/post heat treatments.

Alloy Steel F12 Bars and Rods offer excellent corrosion resistance, high-temperature strength, and durability, making them suitable for challenging environments.
These bars and rods are widely used in power generation, refineries, construction, and heavy machinery industries.
Yes, we provide customized sizes and specifications to meet the unique requirements of our clients.
F12 Bars/Rods are employed in boiler parts, superheaters, and heat exchangers where there is need for moderate temperature service and thermal creep resistance. They are applied in turbine casings, valve bodies, and piping in power generation plants. Any application calling for higher temperature, moderate resistance to corrosion, and toughness against cyclic loading may utilize F12. In the petroleum and refining industries, they are utilized in non‑core structural components. Their heat treatability and machinability make them valuable in fabrication of flanges, couplings, and other critical parts. Particularly where cost‑vs‑performance ratios come into play and full high‑alloy steels would be excessive.






We provide products that come with both mill test certificates and third-party test certificates, ensuring the highest standards of quality and compliance.
