Chung Metal provides Stainless Steel 316 Hex Bars and Rods, produced in Da Nang, Vietnam, for marine, chemical, and industrial use. 316 stainless steel is recognized for its excellent corrosion resistance because of the presence of molybdenum, making it suitable for extreme conditions. Our 316 hex bars are exported in accurate cut and processed sizes for application in fasteners, marine fittings, and structure supports.
316 has 16–18% chromium, 10–14% nickel, 2–3% molybdenum, and carbon ≤ 0.08%. It provides tensile strength of 515–690 MPa, yield strength ~205 MPa, and elongation ≥ 40%. It’s non-magnetic and resists pitting and crevice corrosion in chloride environments.

SS 316 Hex Bars/Rods are highly resistant to corrosion, especially in chloride-rich environments like marine settings. Their durability against pitting, crevice corrosion, and stress corrosion cracking makes them ideal for marine and chemical applications. Additionally, their high-temperature resistance and strength enhance performance in harsh conditions.
SS 316 Hex Bars/Rods are commonly used in industries such as marine, chemical processing, pharmaceuticals, food processing, and aerospace. Their superior corrosion resistance protects against rust, pitting, and chemical damage, making them ideal for harsh environments, ensuring longevity, reliability, and reduced maintenance costs in critical applications.
SS 316 Hex Bars/Rods can be easily welded and machined, but precautions are needed. During welding, pre-heating and post-weld heat treatment are recommended to prevent cracking. Use appropriate filler materials for optimal strength. For machining, ensure proper tooling to avoid work hardening and maintain smooth surfaces.
316 hex bars are extensively applied to marine constructions, chemical tanks, pumps, valve components, food-grade equipment, and architectural installations. It is favored for parts that come into contact with saltwater or corrosive chemicals. Shipbuilding, oil & gas, and pharmaceutical industries depend on 316 for durable performance.
