Phehlukwayo Metal is committed to providing stainless steel products that adhere to international standards, ensuring reliable, long-lasting, and high-performance solutions for a broad spectrum of industrial applications.
Stainless Steel 304 Flat Bars/Rods are made from austenitic stainless steel, primarily consisting of iron, chromium (18–20%), and nickel (8–12%), with a low carbon content (maximum 0.08%) to improve weldability and reduce carbide precipitation. This unique composition offers excellent corrosion resistance, oxidation resistance, and solid mechanical strength. The material has a tensile strength of around 485–620 MPa, yield strength of 205–275 MPa, and good ductility. Its ferrite-free austenitic structure guarantees dimensional stability, weldability, and dependable mechanical properties, making it ideal for long-term use in corrosive and high-temperature environments.
