Stainless Steel 304H Bars and Rods are a type of austenitic stainless steel with a higher carbon content, which boosts their strength at elevated temperatures. Typically, they consist of 18–20% chromium, 8–10% nickel, and a maximum of 0.10% carbon, along with small amounts of manganese, silicon, and phosphorus. This specific composition provides excellent resistance to oxidation and corrosion while ensuring toughness and ductility. In terms of mechanical properties, 304H bars and rods showcase high tensile strength, good yield strength, and impressive toughness, making them perfect for heavy-duty applications. Their superior performance at high temperatures guarantees reliable operation in challenging environments.
