Hemi Metals proudly offers stainless steel 431 hex bars, known for the exceptional corrosion resistance among the 400 series stainless steel and the ability to achieve high strength through heat treatment. These SS 431 Hex Bars are made of martensitic alloys that offer outstanding corrosion resistance, high hardness, torque strength and tensile properties. Our grade 431 hex bar is a chromium-low nickel high quality, hard high capacity martensitic stainless steel, generally supplied in hardness and tempered state with a tensile strength range of 850 – 1000 MPa (Condition T) and Brinell density method of 248 – 302 . These good-strength timbers provide balance and corrosion resistance, making them ideal for heavy-duty applications.
SS 431 Hex Bar is a martensitic stainless steel with a composition that typically includes 16-18% chromium, 1.25% molybdenum, 0.15% carbon, and trace amounts of nickel, manganese, and silicon. This composition provides excellent corrosion resistance and high strength, making it ideal for harsh environments. The mechanical properties of SS 431 include a tensile strength of 580-700 MPa, yield strength of 310-450 MPa, and hardness of 45-50 HRC when heat-treated. These attributes make SS 431 Hex Bar suitable for applications requiring durability, wear resistance, and structural integrity in extreme conditions.
