303 Stainless Steel Round Bar - 1/2" x 144"

This 1/2" diameter 303 Stainless Steel Round Bar is an austenitic, free-machining grade designed for high-speed automated production. Certified to ASTM A582, it provides 90,000 PSI tensile strength, making it ideal for shafts, fittings, and complex machined components. In stock Los Angeles.

  • 303 Stainless Steel Construction
  • ASTM A582 Certified
  • 90,000 PSI Tensile Strength
  • Excellent Machinability (Free-Machining Grade)
Overview|Specifications|Applications|Finish Options|How to Measure|Order Checklist

Type 303 is an austenitic stainless steel specifically engineered for superior machinability through the addition of sulfur. This modification promotes chip breaking and reduces tool wear, making it a primary choice for automated machining. It conforms to ASTM A582, providing good corrosion resistance in mild environments, and is non-magnetic in its annealed state. Welding is not recommended.

As a medium 1/2" diameter round bar, this material is versatile for general-purpose machined components. It is frequently specified for manufacturing shafts, axles, bushings, spacers, and complex fittings where its dimensional stability and excellent machinability allow for efficient, high-volume production with tight tolerances.

Specifications

  • Material: 303 Stainless Steel
  • Standards: ASTM A582
  • Strength/Tensile: 90,000 PSI
  • Dimensions: 1/2" diameter x 144" length
  • Finish: Cold Drawn, Annealed
  • Certifications: Mill Test Report (MTR) Available

Applications

  • Automated Machining: Shafts and axles - excellent machinability for high-speed turning and milling.
  • Fasteners & Hardware: Custom bolts, nuts, and standoffs - easily threaded and machined to precise dimensions.
  • Valves & Fittings: Valve bodies, stems, and non-marine pipe fittings - good corrosion resistance and easy fabrication.
  • Automotive: Solenoid components and gear shafts - high production efficiency for complex parts.

Target Users

Machinists, fabricators, and CNC machine shops rely on 303 Stainless Round Bar for its high-speed production benefits in industrial and manufacturing sectors throughout the Los Angeles area.

Finish Options

This product comes standard with a cold drawn finish, providing a smooth, bright surface and tight dimensional tolerances suitable for most machining applications. For projects requiring a finer surface, centerless grinding may be available via special order. Contact our Los Angeles sales team for custom finish inquiries.

How to Measure

Round bar is measured by its diameter - the distance across its circular face. Use calipers or a micrometer for an accurate reading.

Example: To order this Round Bar, specify "303 Stainless Round Bar, 1/2" diameter x 144" length".
