Louis Metals is a trusted producer and exporter of Stainless Steel 420 Rectangular Bars in Houston, USA, providing excellent quality stainless steel bars that meet stringent industrial specifications. With a keen emphasis on precision, strength, and customer satisfaction, Louis Metals produces SS 420 rectangular bars that provide superior strength, machinability, and wear resistance. Produced from the best quality raw materials and highest level manufacturing processes, the bars are suitable for parts that demand hardness and dimensional precision. Stainless Steel 420 rectangular bars have extensive applications in engineering, tooling, and mechanical applications where strength and stress resistance are critical.
Stainless Steel 420 Rectangular Bars are martensitic stainless steels containing a composition of essentially Chromium (12–14%), Carbon (0.15–0.40%), and minor amounts of Manganese, Silicon, Phosphorus, and Sulfur. The bars can be heat-treated to achieve high tensile strength (700–900 MPa), yield strength of around 500 MPa, and also hardness up to 50 HRC. SS 420 provides average ductility and good machinability in the annealed condition. It provides corrosion resistance sufficient for mildly corrosive environments and features excellent wear, abrasion, and impact strength, and hence the best option for precision-machined and load-bearing parts.

Stainless Steel 420 Rectangular Bars find extensive applications in industries requiring parts of high hardness, wear resistance, and a moderate corrosion protection. They are applied universally in applications such as cutting tools, surgical instruments, valve components, pump parts, and mechanical shafts. In tooling, they find applications in molds, dies, and machine blades. Having good polishability and edge retention, they can be applied in food, medical, and plastic processing industry applications. SS 420 rectangular bars are also employed in the manufacturing of fasteners, vehicle components, and precision instruments requiring both toughness and dimensional stability.
