Chung Metal provides Stainless Steel 202 round bars and rods, a lower-cost austenitic chromium-nickel-manganese grade with good corrosion resistance in most environments. Our 202 rods are manufactured to close tolerances and metallurgical specifications. They provide an economical substitute for higher nickel stainless grades in mildly corrosive situations. Fabricators and manufacturers utilize 202 round bar stock where cost and moderate corrosion performance need to be balanced.
SS 202 generally contains ~17–19% chromium, ~4–6% nickel, ~7–10% manganese, with carbon ~0.15%. It has tensile strength ~520–750 MPa, yield ~205–350 MPa, elongation ~30–40%. Hardness moderate. Higher manganese content stabilizes austenitic structure at lower nickel content. Lower corrosion resistance than 304/316 but sufficient in most atmospheres and mildly corrosive situations. Rods are strong and workable.

Yes, we provide bars and rods in standard and customized dimensions and polishes to meet your specific project requirements. For more details mail us on sales@chungmetal.com
Used in decorative hardware, architectural trim, interior building parts, light structural members, food equipment under mild exposure, and components in non‑severe chemical environments. Round rods for shafts, pins, fasteners, and mechanical parts where general corrosion resistance is desired but cost factors rule out more costly stainless alloys. A sound alternative when ambient exposure or mild moisture is the primary concern instead of strong chemicals.






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