Chung Metal is a trusted supplier of high-performance Stainless Steel 317L Flat Bars, engineered for use in aggressive chemical and marine environments. SS 317L is a low-carbon, high-molybdenum austenitic stainless steel that provides excellent resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion, and chemical attack. Flat bar shape is very suitable for structural reinforcement, support brackets, and corrosion-resistant component fabrication. Chung Metal supplies SS 317L flat bars in terms of thickness and width, along with precision-cut edges and surface finishes customized for chemical process industries, marine industry construction, food equipment manufacturing, and power plant industries.
SS 317L has around 18–20% chromium, 11–15% nickel, and 3–4% molybdenum, with a maximum of 0.03% carbon. It provides better resistance to chlorides and reducing acids. Its typical mechanical properties are tensile strength of 480–700 MPa, yield strength of 170–300 MPa, and elongation of ~35%. The alloy is non-magnetic in the annealed state, easily weldable, and suitable for machining and forming. Flat bar form offers large surface area and even load distribution in structural uses.

Stainless Steel 317L is primarily composed of iron, with high levels of chromium (18-20%) and nickel (11-15%), along with molybdenum (3-4%) for enhanced corrosion resistance. It also contains small amounts of carbon, manganese, silicon, and phosphorus.
Yes, Stainless Steel 317L Flat Bar is highly resistant to corrosion, especially in harsh environments. Its high chromium, nickel, and molybdenum content enhances resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion, and general oxidation, making it ideal for chemical and marine applications.
Yes, Stainless Steel 317L Flat Bar can be welded easily using standard welding techniques such as TIG, MIG, and SMAW. Its low carbon content minimizes carbide precipitation during welding, ensuring strong joints and excellent corrosion resistance in the weld area.
Stainless Steel 317L flat bars find widespread applications in chemical processing facilities, pulp and paper facilities, marine structures, condensers, and food processing machinery. Due to their greater resistance against chlorides and acid solutions, these bars find applications in brine systems, pollution control scrubbers, and wastewater treatment systems. 317L flat is suitable for tank stiffeners, flanges, supports, base plates, and welded fabrications which are subjected to corrosive environments. 317L is chosen where welding is unavoidable without post-weld heat treatment. Chung Metal supplies 317L flat bars with accurate tolerances and finishes for structural and sanitary-grade industrial use.
