Supplied at tight tolerances and controlled metallurgy by Chung Metal in Đà Nẵng are Stainless Steel 431 rectangular bars. Grade 431 is a martensitic alloy with stainless properties and high strength, applicable to challenging structural and mechanical components. Chung Metal ensures uniform chemical composition, heattreatment, and finishing, delivering bars with superior mechanical performance along with corrosion resistance in ordinary environments. Our manufacturing process ensures ground or polished finishes, with traceable uniform grain, allowing automotive, aerospace, and tooling industry clients to count on reliable 431 bars.
Stainless Steel 431 contains approximately 12–14 % chromium, 0.15‑0.40 % carbon, and approximately 2‑3 % nickel, with manganese, silicon, phosphorus and sulfur in small quantities. Upon proper quenching and tempering, it possesses high tensile strength ranging from 850‑1000 MPa, yield strength approximately 600‑750 MPa, and elongation usually 10‑20 %. Hardness can be approximately 45‑50 HRC. Corrosion resistance is better than most martensitic steels but inferior to austenitic grades; retains good fatigue strength.

Yes, Stainless Steel 431 Rectangular Bars can be used at high temperatures due to their excellent oxidation and corrosion resistance, typically up to 800°C.
The pressure rating of Stainless Steel 431 Rectangular Bars depends on the specific application and design, but they generally perform well under moderate pressure conditions in structural and machinery applications.
Yes, Stainless Steel 431 Rectangular Bars are fully recyclable and can be reused without losing their properties.
431 rectangular bars find application in the production of high-stress components like shafts, gears, valve components, pumps, and fasteners in automotive and marine use. They are applicable in components that need to be highly strong and having moderate corrosion resistance—like in situations where salt water or mild corrosive environments are involved. Also applied in aerospace usage for structural fittings, and in tooling where toughness, strength, and corrosion resistance in combination are required. Their increased hardness after treatment renders them suitable for wear-resistant and load-carrying applications.
