Kalpataru Piping Solution is a leading supplier of 904L Stainless steel rods, also known as stainless steel bars, which are a type of stainless steel product most commonly used in food, construction, and manufacturing industries. These SS rods are available in various sizes and shapes, like round, square, and hexagonal.
Stainless steel rods are highly valued due to their beneficial properties like greater performance in high-temperature conditions, superior resistance from corrosive chemicals and other abrasive fluids, high durability, and strength for long service life, and a high level of hygiene, which makes them suitable for food industries.
As a leading Stainless Steel Rod manufacturer in India, we offer SS rods in a variety of grades, catering to different industrial needs.
Round bars and rods are the cross-sections that are used in industrial applications. However, they are the cylindrical length cross-section whose diameter ranges as per the industrial applications. The bars and rods are available in the industries depending upon the nature of the applications. Stainless steel rods are hot-rolled as well as cold-rolled but the cold-rolled bars are precise in dimensions with having the greatest support, braces, motor, and others. The hot-rolled bars and rods are greatly used in the construction sectors with the help of different dimensions and other things.

The Stainless Steel 904L Rod offers excellent resistance to crevice corrosion and stress corrosion cracking. One can expect excellent formability and weldability from the 904L Stainless Steel Rod. We have a vast 904L Rod stock, and we have been supplying our products to the chemical processing industries. The Stainless Steel 904L Rod is also known for its non-magnetic properties and toughness. Being one of the top 904L Rod suppliers, we can guarantee the excellent general corrosion-resisting properties of the 904L Rod.
How are stainless steel bars made?
Making stainless steel bars is as precise and fascinating as it is impressive. To create stainless steel bars, the raw material must first be processed into a form that can be manipulated. First, the producers heat the material with large and precise mechanical furnaces until it’s at the desired temperature. Then they are cut, shaped, and rolled into precise lengths while cooling. Once cooled, they are ground, polished, and inspected to ensure the highest quality product possible. After this is completed, these stainless steel bars can be used in various applications, such as railroad tracks or structural beams in buildings. The attention to detail taken during this process makes these products beautiful and resilient to corrosion that can come from moisture or temperature changes.
Different Types Of Stainless Steel Rods
| Ferritic Stainless Steel Rods | Austenitic Stainless Steel Rods | Martensitic Stainless Steel Rods |
| Are High in chromium and low in carbon. | Contains a great amount of chromium and nickel. | Contains a higher level of carbon than ferritic alloys. |
| Offer moderate to good levels of corrosion resistance and strength. | Offer excellent corrosion resistance. | Provide low resistance to corrosion in comparison to other stainless steel types. |
| Less hardenable and weldable, hence not suitable for cryogenic temperatures. | Has easy weldability and formability due to manganese, nickel, and nitrogen content. | Not enough formable or weldable |
| Have high heat tolerance and can work in aggressive environmental conditions. | Offer moderate strength and hardness, ductility, and toughness. | Has good tensile and fatigue strength. |
