Louis Metals is a reliable supplier and producer of Stainless Steel 317 Hex Bars and Rods in Houston, USA, offering top-quality stainless steel products engineered for optimal corrosion resistance and mechanical durability. Manufactured from advanced production processes and first-rate materials, SS 317 hex bars and SS 317 hex rods are intended for application in severe corrosive environments involving aggressive chemicals, salts, and acids. Due to superior strength, high resistance to crevice and pitting corrosion, and greater durability, Stainless Steel 317 hex bars and rods are extensively applied in petrochemical, chemical processing, marine, and pulp & paper industries where long-term performance is required.
Stainless Steel 317 Hex Bars/Rods are austenitic, high-alloy stainless steels with Chromium (18–20%), Nickel (11–15%), Molybdenum (3–4%), and Carbon up to 0.08%. Increased molybdenum content provides better corrosion resistance compared to normal austenitic grades, particularly in chloride and acidic media. These bars exhibit tensile strength of 515–760 MPa, yield strength of approximately 205 MPa, and good weldability and ductility. SS 317 is non-magnetic in the annealed state and retains its strength and corrosion resistance even under high temperature conditions and is suitable for welding and fabrication applications.

Stainless Steel 317 Hex Bars and Rods find wide usage in such applications where outstanding corrosion resistance along with mechanical stability is demanded. Normal uses are in chemical and petrochemical process equipment, evaporators, heat exchangers, storage vessels, scrubbers, and piping. In pulp & paper, food processing, and textile sectors, SS 317 finds application for its capability to resist contact with aggressive chemicals and hot acid solutions. Its hexagonal form provides increased mechanical hold and resistance to torque, and this bar is ideal for fasteners, shafts, and other parts where strength, accuracy, and corrosive attack resistance are essential.
We provide products that come with both mill test certificates and third-party test certificates, ensuring the highest standards of quality and compliance.
