Stainless Steel 303 Round Bar - 3/16" x 144"
This 3/16" diameter 303 Stainless Steel Round Bar is a free-machining grade designed for automated production. Meeting ASTM A582 standards, it combines 90,000 PSI tensile strength with good corrosion resistance, making it ideal for precision turned parts like fasteners and fittings. In stock Los Angeles.
- 303 Stainless Steel Construction
- ASTM A582 Certified
- 90,000 PSI Tensile Strength
- Excellent Machinability (Free-Machining Grade)
Type 303 is an austenitic stainless steel specifically modified with sulfur to achieve superior machinability, making it the preferred choice for automated machining operations. This cold drawn bar meets ASTM A582 specifications and provides 90,000 PSI tensile strength and good corrosion resistance in mild environments. It is non-magnetic in the annealed condition and cannot be hardened by heat treatment.
As a small-diameter 3/16" bar, this product is perfectly suited for manufacturing precision components. It is frequently used for pins, dowels, fastener blanks, small shafts, and complex parts produced on CNC lathes and screw machines where tight tolerances and an excellent surface finish are critical.
