Stainless Steel 1.4122, also referred to as X90CrMoV18 or 1.4122 martensitic stainless steel, is primarily made up of 0.9% carbon, 17–19% chromium, 0.9% molybdenum, along with small amounts of vanadium and manganese. This unique blend gives it remarkable hardness, wear resistance, and decent corrosion resistance. The mechanical properties of 1.4122 hex bars showcase high tensile strength, typically ranging from 700–900 MPa, and yield strength between 450–600 MPa, along with good toughness and hardness levels hitting 200–250 HB. These traits make it perfect for applications that demand precision, durability, and resistance to abrasive or mildly corrosive conditions.

Stainless Steel 1.4122 hex bars are relatively environmentally friendly, as they are recyclable and durable. However, the production process involves energy consumption and emissions, which can impact the environment to some extent.
The typical size range for Stainless Steel 1.4122 hex bars varies from 6 mm to 100 mm in diameter, with lengths commonly ranging from 1000 mm to 4000 mm, depending on specifications.
Yes, Stainless Steel 1.4122 flat bars can be welded, though preheating and post-weld heat treatment may be necessary to reduce the risk of cracking and ensure optimal weld quality.
Stainless Steel 1.4122 Hex Bars find extensive use in various industries, including tooling, engineering, and the manufacturing of mechanical components. They are particularly well-suited for crafting knives, cutting tools, blades, shafts, gears, and other precision parts thanks to their impressive hardness and wear resistance. Moreover, these hex bars are ideal for applications in the chemical, food processing, and automotive sectors, where moderate corrosion resistance and mechanical strength are essential. Their machinability and capacity to be heat-treated to specific hardness levels make them a favored option for custom-engineered components and high-performance applications.
We provide products that come with both mill test certificates and third-party test certificates, ensuring the highest standards of quality and compliance.
