Stainless Steel 416 Rectangular Bars are martensitic stainless steels that contain mainly Chromium (12–14%), Sulfur (up to 0.15% for better machinability), Carbon (≤ 0.15%), and traces of Manganese, Silicon, Phosphorus, and Sulfur. The most machinable stainless steel, SS 416 contains tensile strength of 550–760 MPa, yield strength approximately 275 MPa, and medium hardness up to 35 HRC in hardened condition. It maintains magnetic properties and provides moderate corrosion resistance, especially in dry or mildly corrosive conditions, and is best used for high-speed machining and turning.

Stainless Steel 416 Rectangular Bars find extensive use where there is a requirement for high machinability, good strength, and moderate corrosion resistance. Typical applications include production of valve parts, gears, fasteners, shafts, studs, pump components, and motor parts. In the automotive and aeronautical fields, SS 416 is preferred for making accurate components that demand close tolerances and fine finishes. It is also utilized in making mechanical tools, bushings, and fittings. Owing to its brilliant performance under machining, SS 416 rectangular bars are well suited for high-volume manufacturing where tool wear is low and efficiency is high.
