Chung Metal manufactures strong Stainless Steel 420 Round Bars and Rods, a martensitic stainless steel with high hardness and superior wear resistance. SS 420 can be hardened by heat treatment and is suitable for mechanical parts, cutting tools, and uses involving high strength and polishability. Round bar shape is particularly ideal for shafts, fasteners, and valve parts. Chung Metal provides SS 420 bars in annealed, hardened, or tempered state to provide superior dimensional accuracy, surface finish, and mechanical integrity in various industrial applications.
SS 420 has 12–14% chromium and a maximum of 0.3–0.4% carbon. It has tensile strength of 700–1000 MPa and yield strength of 500–800 MPa, with a maximum of 50 HRC hardness after heat treatment. It is ferromagnetic and has moderate corrosion resistance. Round bar shape has equi-axial strength and is ideal for accurate machining.

The pressure rating of Stainless Steel 420 Round Bars/Rods varies depending on factors like size, shape, and application. Generally, it's suitable for medium-pressure applications but is not recommended for high-pressure environments due to its hardness.
Yes, Stainless Steel 420 Round Bars/Rods can be recycled after use. As with most stainless steels, they retain their properties during recycling, making them a sustainable material option for reuse in manufacturing.
Yes, Stainless Steel 420 Round Bars/Rods require regular inspection, especially in critical applications. Routine checks ensure their integrity, detect wear or corrosion, and maintain performance in demanding environments.
420 round bars/rods are extensively used in cutting tools, surgical equipment, pump shafts, moulds, shear blades, and valve parts. They are suitable for wear-prone environments due to their high hardness, and their polishability lends them to be used in decorative or cleanroom applications. SS 420 is also used in food processing blades, scissors, and measuring equipment. The round bar form is ideal for rotary parts and precision-machined tools. Chung Metal offers SS 420 bars in customized lengths, finishes, and hardness.
