Chung Metal’s Stainless Steel 446 bars and rods are top‑quality, high‑performance parts designed for harsh conditions. With ferritic alloy microstructure and high chromium levels, these are produced under strict controls to guarantee uniformity, resistance to corrosion, and heat resistance. Our SS 446 rods/bars can come in round, square, or hex cross-sections and are suitable for both domestic and overseas use. At Chung Metal, we utilize high-tech melting, forging, and finishing processes to provide rods/bars that have tight tolerances, good surface finish, and uniform physical properties between batches.
SS 446 is a ferritic stainless steel with high chromium (≥ 23‑27 %) and trace amounts of silicon, manganese, and very low carbon (< 0.20 %). It contains little or no nickel, which keeps it economical. Mechanical properties are tensile strength commonly around 450‑650 MPa, yield strength ~200‑350 MPa, and elongation around 20‑25 %. Hardness (HB) typically between 150‑250 depending on heat treatment. SS 446 has high strength and resists scaling at elevated temperatures at around 800‑900 °C, and provides effective resistance to oxidation and sulfidation.

Stainless Steel 446 Bars and Rods are known for their excellent resistance to oxidation, high temperatures, and corrosive environments. They also exhibit remarkable scaling resistance and durability, making them suitable for demanding industrial applications.
These bars and rods are widely used in industries such as petrochemical, chemical processing, power generation, and marine applications. They are also suitable for heat exchangers, boiler parts, furnace components, and high-temperature exhaust systems.
Yes, Stainless Steel 446 Bars and Rods offer exceptional resistance to high temperatures and oxidation, performing effectively in applications that involve prolonged exposure to elevated temperatures.
SS 446 rods/bars are especially best suited for high-temperature and oxidative conditions. Uses are furnace muffles, heat exchanger parts, chimney liners, industrial burner components, and boiler parts. Also utilized in petrochemical applications for flue gas systems and atmospheres where sulphur or chlorides are present at high temperature. Its resistance to corrosion by cyclic heating renders it suitable for use in applications such as kiln equipment and metallurgy. SS 446 is also applied in architectural decoration exposed to heat or harsh atmosphere, where appearance along with performance under thermal stress are demanded.
