Stainless Steel 440C Bars and Rods are high-carbon martensitic stainless steels celebrated for their remarkable hardness, strength, and wear resistance. Typically, they contain 16–18% chromium, 0.95–1.2% carbon, and trace amounts of manganese, silicon, and molybdenum, which contribute to their excellent corrosion resistance and high tensile strength. After heat treatment, they achieve a hardness range of 58–60 HRC, providing outstanding durability and dimensional stability. These characteristics make 440C Bars and Rods perfect for applications that demand precision, toughness, and resistance to abrasive wear, all while maintaining their resistance to oxidation and corrosion in tough environments.

Stainless Steel 440C Bars and Rods are known for their high hardness, achieving up to 58-60 HRC when heat-treated. This makes them ideal for applications requiring excellent wear and abrasion resistance.
Stainless Steel 440C offers good corrosion resistance in mild environments, but for more aggressive conditions (like exposure to saltwater), it is recommended to use more corrosion-resistant stainless steel grades like 316 or 317.
Stainless Steel 440C is widely used in industries such as aerospace, automotive, manufacturing, and medical fields for components like bearings, valve parts, cutting tools, and high-precision machinery.
You’ll find Stainless Steel 440C Bars and Rods widely utilized in industries that require high-performance components. They are commonly used in precision bearings, valve components, surgical instruments, knives, and cutting tools, where hardness and wear resistance are essential. Additionally, they play a crucial role in automotive, aerospace, and industrial machinery parts that need to maintain dimensional stability under stress. The blend of corrosion resistance and mechanical strength makes them suitable for both dry and mildly corrosive environments. Plus, 440C Bars and Rods are perfect for crafting shafts, pins, and other small components that need to last over time.






We provide products that come with both mill test certificates and third-party test certificates, ensuring the highest standards of quality and compliance.
