- 303 Stainless Steel Construction
- ASTM A582 Certified
- 90,000 PSI Tensile Strength
- Excellent Machinability (Free-Machining Grade)
Type 303 is an austenitic stainless steel engineered for superior machinability through the addition of sulfur, which promotes chip breaking and reduces tool wear. It provides 90,000 PSI tensile strength, good corrosion resistance in mild environments, and conforms to ASTM A582 standards. It is non-magnetic in the annealed condition and cannot be hardened by heat treatment.
As a medium 2" diameter bar, this material is a versatile choice for manufacturing shafts, axles, gears, spacers, and valve components where high-speed production, tight tolerances, and a smooth surface finish are critical project requirements for industrial and manufacturing sectors.
