Phehlukwayo Metals is one of the top manufacturers and distributors of Stainless Steel Flat Bars. Available in numerous grades and types, flat bars are typically produced from stainless steels: ferritic, austenitic, martensitic, and duplex. Of the four categories, austenitic type is mostly preferred, among which SS304 is one of the world’s leading. This grade contains 18% chromium and 8% nickel, making it versatile and widely used in all types of industries. Another product provided by Phehlukwayo Metals is the Brushed 316 Polished Flat Bar, with a polished finish and grade 316 stainless steel. This grade contains chromium, nickel, and 4% molybdenum, making it more corrosion-resistant than 304 grade. The sizes of ASTM A276 Stainless Steel 304 Flat Bar vary from application to application, varying in width from 5mm to 500mm and up to 6 meters in length.
Thin stainless steel is made primarily of iron, chromium and nickel, and varies in texture. The most common type, 304 stainless steel, contains 18% chromium and 8% nickel, providing excellent corrosion resistance and strength. Grade 316 with 4% molybdenum increases corrosion resistance, especially in marine environments. Technical properties include high tensile strength, typically ranging from 515-740 MPa for grade 304, excellent formability, resistance to wear and oxidation These characteristics make stainless steel flat bars ideal for a variety of structural and architectural applications.

Stainless steel flat bars can be cut using methods like a saw (manual or power), angle grinders, laser cutting, or water jet cutting. The choice of method depends on the bar's thickness, precision required, and available equipment.
Yes, stainless steel flat bars are highly resistant to corrosion due to their chromium content, which forms a protective oxide layer. This layer prevents rust and deterioration, making stainless steel ideal for applications exposed to moisture and harsh environments.
Stainless steel flat bars are highly versatile and find applications in construction, manufacturing, and other industrial processes. Because of their strength and resistance to corrosion, they find widespread use in the manufacturing of structural supports, frames, and brackets. Such flat bars are also vital in equipment fabrication for food, chemical, and pharmaceutical industries. Stainless steel flat bars are applied to the area of ornamental application and architectural finishings with bespoke fabrication as well and good resistance towards corrosion, wear, and high temperature.
We provide products that come with both mill test certificates and third-party test certificates, ensuring the highest standards of quality and compliance.
