Chung Metal is a premier Vietnamese manufacturer of Stainless Steel 321 Square Bars/Rods, an austenitic grade stabilized with titanium that provides remarkable resistance to intergranular corrosion and high-temperature strength. These square bars are engineered for thermal applications and post-weld stability and are adequate for structural and mechanical parts subjected to repetitive temperature cycling. Chung Metal produces 321 rods to precise tolerances with fine surface finish and edge quality. The square shape ensures alignment and balance in assembly or fabrication, making them ideal for use in the aerospace, petrochemical, and high-temperature processing industries.
SS 321 is 17–19% chromium, 9–12% nickel, and titanium-stabilized. It has ≤ 0.08% carbon content. It offers tensile strength of 500–700 MPa, yield strength of 200–300 MPa, and elongation of 35–45%. It is suitable for conditions up to 870°C, particularly in heat-cycled or welded conditions. It is non-magnetic, weldable, and has resistance against intergranular corrosion. The square shape is ideal for conditions that require flat mounting surfaces, stiffness, and machinability in precision-fabricated components.

Stainless Steel 321 Square Bars are available in a range of sizes, typically from ¼" to 12" in width. Common finishes include mill finish, polished, and cold drawn.
Yes, Stainless Steel 321 Square Rods can be welded using most standard welding techniques. However, post-weld heat treatment may be required to maintain its properties and prevent sensitization.
Stainless Steel 321 Square Bars are generally non-magnetic in their annealed condition. However, they may exhibit slight magnetic properties if cold-worked.
321 square rods find extensive application in heat exchangers, exhaust components, refinery hardware, pressure vessels welded together, and piping for high-temperature use. Their titanium stabilization ensures that they are best suited for welded assemblies where carbide precipitation resistance is crucial. The square shape facilitates fabrication of brackets, frames, and structural panels for aerospace and high-temperature processing applications. Furnace fixtures, expansion joints, and chemical plant parts also utilize 321 square rods. Chung Metal provides SS 321 square rods that are designed for applications that need both high strength and corrosion resistance for long-term thermal exposure.
