Mourad Metals, located in Tunis, Tunisia, has built a solid reputation as a reliable manufacturer and supplier of top-notch stainless steel products, with a particular focus on STAINLESS STEEL 317L HEX BARS/RODS. Known for their precision engineering and durability, Mourad Metals guarantees that every hex bar adheres to international quality standards, offering outstanding corrosion resistance, strength, and performance. The 317L grade is especially prized for its ability to endure harsh chemical environments and high temperatures, making it perfect for industrial, marine, and chemical applications. With a strong commitment to customer satisfaction and timely delivery, Mourad Metals proudly serves a diverse range of sectors with dependable stainless steel solutions.
STAINLESS STEEL 317L HEX BARS/RODS are an austenitic stainless steel alloy enriched with high levels of chromium, nickel, and molybdenum. This unique blend provides exceptional corrosion resistance, particularly against pitting and crevice corrosion in chloride-rich environments. The mechanical properties of these bars include impressive tensile strength, yield strength, and elongation, ensuring they remain durable under stress. With a typical tensile strength ranging from 620 to 750 MPa and good hardness, 317L hex bars maintain their structural integrity even at elevated temperatures. Their low carbon content helps reduce carbide precipitation during welding, making them more suitable for fabrication and lowering the risk of intergranular corrosion.

SS 317L Hex Bars/Rods are commonly used in chemical processing, marine environments, pharmaceuticals, and food processing due to their excellent corrosion resistance and high strength. They are ideal for handling aggressive chemicals, including sulfuric acid, bleaching solutions, and pulp liquor. In construction, they are used for structural components and fittings.
SS 317L Hex Bars/Rods typically range from 6 mm to 100 mm in diameter, with lengths up to 6 meters. Tolerances generally conform to ±0.5 mm for diameter. These dimensions and tolerances ensure precision for machining, making them ideal for applications requiring high strength, corrosion resistance, and tight fit.
The high chromium (18-20%) and molybdenum (3-4%) content in SS 317L enhances its resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion by forming a passive oxide layer that protects against chloride-induced degradation. The low carbon content further reduces the risk of stress corrosion cracking, ensuring durability in harsh chloride environments.
STAINLESS STEEL 317L HEX BARS/RODS are extensively utilized in the chemical processing, petrochemical, and marine industries due to their remarkable corrosion resistance and strength. They are perfect for building equipment that faces harsh acids, saltwater, and high-temperature conditions, such as heat exchangers, valves, pumps, and reactors. Additionally, they are used in architectural components, fasteners, and structural frameworks where both aesthetics and durability are essential. The hexagonal shape allows for easy handling, machining, and assembly, making 317L hex bars a versatile option for manufacturers.
