Chung Metal provides Stainless Steel 201 Bars and Rods as a budget-friendly option to 304 with good strength and fair corrosion resistance. Produced in Da Nang, Vietnam, our 201 bars come in various shapes and sizes for architectural, automotive, and light industrial applications. 201 is a chromium-nickel-manganese stainless steel with superior formability and surface finish. Chung Metal provides exact dimension control and uniform surface quality for mass-market uses.
201 has 16–18% chromium, 3.5–5.5% nickel, 5.5–7.5% manganese, and carbon ≤ 0.15%. It possesses 520–680 MPa tensile strength, 275 MPa yield strength, and ~35% elongation. It provides reasonable corrosion resistance in mildly corrosive conditions and is magnetic when cold worked. Its mechanical properties suit it best for general-purpose applications.
