Hemi Metals, located in Hamilton, New Zealand, is a reputable manufacturer and supplier of high-quality Stainless Steel 416 Flat Bars, perfect for precision machining and robust industrial applications. SS 416 is a free-machining martensitic stainless steel designed for excellent machinability, along with solid corrosion resistance and mechanical strength. With a focus on strict dimensional accuracy, a smooth surface finish, and controlled metallurgical quality, these flat bars deliver reliable performance in challenging environments. Hemi Metals caters to various industries, including automotive, industrial machinery, oil & gas, and precision engineering, where productivity, accuracy, and durability are key.
Stainless Steel 416 is composed of about 12–14% chromium, with a carefully controlled carbon content and added sulfur to enhance machinability. While the sulfur boosts cutting performance, it does slightly compromise corrosion resistance compared to SS 410. Typically, SS 416 flat bars achieve tensile strength between 500–700 MPa after heat treatment, showcasing good hardness and moderate ductility. This material is magnetic, responds well to hardening and tempering, and offers exceptional machinability among stainless steel grades, all while ensuring dependable mechanical performance.
