Hemi Metals, located in Hamilton, New Zealand, is a reliable manufacturer and supplier of top-notch Stainless Steel 321H Square Bars and Rods, specifically designed for high-temperature and pressure-critical industrial applications. SS 321H is a titanium-stabilized, high-carbon austenitic stainless steel that enhances strength at elevated temperatures. With a focus on precise dimensions and rigorous quality control, these square bars and rods ensure outstanding mechanical reliability and thermal stability. Hemi Metals caters to industries like power generation, petrochemical, aerospace, and heavy engineering, where high-temperature performance and corrosion resistance are crucial.
Stainless Steel 321H is composed of about 17–19% chromium and 9–12% nickel, featuring a higher carbon content than SS 321, along with titanium stabilization to prevent carbide precipitation. This unique blend offers exceptional resistance to intergranular corrosion and improved high-temperature strength. Typically, SS 321H square bars boast a tensile strength of around 515–620 MPa and a yield strength close to 205–240 MPa, while also providing good ductility and creep resistance. These bars are non-magnetic when annealed and maintain consistent mechanical performance even under prolonged exposure to high temperatures.
