Used to make a wide variety of industrial and domestic equipment, silver steel is a strong and versatile alloy. High in carbon content, with added chromium, it produces durable and strong tools. In the hands of a gifted machinist, intricate designs can be achieved for objects such as tools for engraving, as well as instrument, and model parts. Steel rods are primarily used in the construction and manufacturing industries. To reinforce pillars, they are usually fitted as rebar into pillars. What is the Strongest Steel Rod? A stainless steel round bar grade is what dictates the overall resistance and intended application. Mostly, this is a function of the chemical makeup and finishing treatment of the steel round bar. BS - This is an abbreviation for British Standard, which shows that the product has been tested according to this standard and has been found safe

As seen on Gardener's World - perfect for make your own plant supports. Find out more here: Make Your Own Plant Supports We supply stainless steel bars in grades 304 and 316. Grade 304 is a general purpose grade which is excellent for welding. Grade 316 has outstanding corrosive resistance. It is therefore commonly used outdoors, or in particularly harsh settings like marine environments. Metal bars are lengths of material in a range of forms suitable for use in a wide range of applications. Construction and fabrication industries are some of the most common uses for metal bars and use a wide range of materials and forms in industrial and everyday use products. Round Bar– Also known as Metal Rod, the round bar is typically measured by its diameter referring to the widest dimension across the cross-section of the bar. Ferrous metal rods - These are made up of ferrous metals and alloys which happen to be iron-based and are popular due to their high levels of hardening and property alloying elements.A high-quality stainless steel round bar has incredible toughness and strength, especially for construction purposes. They are incredibly rigid and can support several tons of weight. Stainless steel rod round bar with titanium in their chemical makeup tend to be the strongest. What is Steel Rod? Available in different forms these products can be split out into different types due to the nature of their makeup. For instance, you’ll find a stainless steel pole in use during the erection of elaborate buildings. They also feature in household fixtures and food-grade utensils. A steel rod offers a wide variety of applications. They are highly versatile due to their high resistance to weather extremities and other external factors. These hard metal bars are prevalent in our environment. But just how familiar are you with the properties and applications of a steel bar?

For rods that are more than two inches in diameter we offer grade 303. This is the most machinable austenitic grade of stainless steel because it has a slightly higher proportion of sulphur. It is commonly used for aircrafts, nuts, screws and bolts. A stainless steel rod, or stainless steel bar, is commonly used in construction because of its durability and resistance to rusting.Also available in a range of materials, our range of metal bars and rods can accommodate any application. Our bars and rods can be found in: Metal rods are specially formed pieces of metal and alloy that are shaped into a rod-like aesthetic hence the name. Metal rods are commonly used to support a range of applications such as within masonry structures. Therefore, whether you're looking for a 3mm steel rod or a 6mm stainless steel rod , the internal composition determines the best application for it.
