Tailored for industries with high demands, these hex bars excel in resisting acids, chloride environments, and seawater. Crafted to meet international quality standards, Khaleed Stainless ensures that their 904L hex bars come with precise dimensions and a flawless surface finish. These bars play a vital role in sectors like chemical processing, marine, and pharmaceuticals, where mechanical integrity and corrosion protection are crucial for long-lasting performance.
The Stainless Steel 904L Hex Bar is a low-carbon, high-alloy austenitic stainless steel, featuring around 20% chromium, 25% nickel, 4.5% molybdenum, and a touch of copper. This unique blend grants it excellent resistance to strong reducing acids, as well as pitting and crevice corrosion. With a tensile strength ranging from about 490 to 710 MPa and a yield strength of roughly 220 MPa, it also boasts good toughness and formability. Despite its rich alloy content, it remains easy to weld and work with. Its non-magnetic properties and high resistance to chloride stress corrosion cracking make it a perfect fit for challenging chemical and marine environments.

SS 904L Hex Bar offers excellent corrosion resistance, especially against pitting, crevice, and stress corrosion cracking. Its high nickel and chromium content make it ideal for harsh environments like chemical processing, marine, and power plants. The hexagonal shape provides enhanced strength and machinability, ensuring durability and reliability in industrial applications.
SS 904L outperforms many stainless steels, such as 304 and 316, in corrosion resistance due to its higher nickel and molybdenum content. This composition enhances resistance to chloride-induced pitting and crevice corrosion, making it ideal for environments with high chloride concentrations or acidic exposure, such as chemical and marine applications.
SS 904L Hex Bar is commonly used in the chemical, petrochemical, marine, and pharmaceutical industries. It is ideal for applications such as heat exchangers, reactor vessels, pressure vessels, and piping systems, where resistance to corrosion, especially in acidic and chloride-rich environments, is critical for long-term durability and performance.
Stainless Steel 904L Hex Bars find their place in industries where battling aggressive corrosion and chemical attacks is a must. In chemical processing, they shine in equipment that faces sulfuric, phosphoric, and acetic acids. The marine sector utilizes them for seawater cooling systems, pump shafts, and structures exposed to saltwater. In the pharmaceutical and food industries, 904L is prized for its cleanliness, durability, and non-reactive nature. These hex bars are also employed in pulp & paper production, heat exchangers, and gas scrubbing systems, delivering both strength and corrosion resistance.
We provide products that come with both mill test certificates and third-party test certificates, ensuring the highest standards of quality and compliance.
