Stainless Steel Round 304 - 1/2 Inch

Precision-sized at 1/2" diameter and cut to 144" lengths, this 304 Stainless Steel Round Bar is built for versatility. Conforming to ASTM A276, it delivers 73,200 PSI tensile strength, excellent corrosion resistance, and superior weldability — making it the go-to choice for medium-sized shafts, structural supports, food-grade equipment, and architectural applications.

Conforming to ASTM A276, this 1/2" diameter 304 Stainless Steel Round Bar is a versatile austenitic steel that brings together 73,200 PSI tensile strength, excellent corrosion resistance, and superior weldability. The result: a material equally at home in machined shafts, architectural components, and food processing equipment.

Specifications

Type 304 is the most widely used austenitic stainless steel for a reason: 18% chromium and 8% nickel deliver outstanding resistance to a broad range of atmospheric and chemical corrosives. Compliant with ASTM A276, it pairs 73,200 PSI tensile strength with excellent formability and toughness that holds even at cryogenic temperatures. It stays non-magnetic in the annealed condition and is readily weldable by all standard fusion methods.

As a medium-diameter 1/2" round bar, this product is built for general-purpose structural and machining use - think machinery shafts, axles, structural support pins, bushings, and spacers where you need a proven balance of strength, corrosion resistance, and cost-effectiveness.

Food & Beverage:

Sanitary fittings and equipment shafts - Excellent corrosion resistance and cleanability.

Architectural:

Handrails and support posts - Medium diameter provides strength with aesthetic appeal.

Machinery:

Shafts, axles, and spacers - Good strength and machinability for precision components.

Automotive:

Exhaust system hangers and custom components - Resists heat and corrosion.
