Louis Metals supplies Stainless Steel 440C Hollow Bars from Houston, USA, designed for precision components that need extreme wear resistance and high hardness. 440C is a high-carbon martensitic stainless steel commonly used in applications where strength, hardness, and dimensional stability are crucial. Our hollow bars are perfect for making bushings, sleeves, valve bodies, and bearing housings. Produced to ASTM A511 standards, Louis Metals offers seamless and welded hollow bars with tight tolerances, smooth internal surfaces, and ready-to-machine formats. These 440C hollow bars support toolmakers, bearing manufacturers, and precision engineering industries with reliable, durable material solutions.
440C stainless steel contains 16–18% chromium and 0.95–1.20% carbon, achieving hardness levels of up to 60 HRC after heat treatment. Tensile strength exceeds 1900 MPa when fully hardened. It’s magnetic, heat-treatable, and offers moderate corrosion resistance in oil, air, and mild environments. Ideal for high-stress or frictional uses, 440C is known for its dimensional stability and ability to maintain tight tolerances. Louis Metals ensures each hollow bar has precise internal bore diameters and consistent wall thickness to support high-precision machining and structural performance.
