This 3/4" diameter 303 Stainless Steel Round Bar is a free-machining austenitic grade engineered for high-speed manufacturing. Conforming to ASTM A582, it delivers 90,000 PSI tensile strength with excellent machinability and good corrosion resistance, making it ideal for precision machined components. In stock Los Angeles.
- 303 Stainless Steel Construction
- ASTM A582 Certified
- 90,000 PSI Tensile Strength
- Excellent Machinability
Type 303 is an austenitic stainless steel specifically designed for superior machinability. An addition of sulfur to its composition reduces tool wear and allows for higher cutting speeds, a primary reason for its use in automated machining. While this modification enhances workability, it slightly reduces corrosion resistance compared to Type 304. It is non-magnetic and cannot be hardened by heat treatment.
As a medium-sized 3/4" round bar, this material provides a versatile and stable stock for a wide range of machined components. It is frequently specified for creating shafts, axles, gears, valves, and fittings where high-speed production and a smooth surface finish are critical project requirements.

For specific project requirements, other finishes such as centerless ground or passivated may be available via special order. Contact our Los Angeles sales team for custom finish inquiries.
How to Measure
Round bar is measured by its diameter — the distance across the widest point of the circular cross-section. Use calipers or a micrometer for an accurate measurement.
Example: To order this round bar, specify "303 Stainless Round Bar, 3/4" diameter x 144" length".
