Stainless Steel 420 Hex Bars are made of martensitic stainless steel, which has a chromium content of 12–14% and a carbon content of up to 0.15%. Manganese, silicon, and sulphur are added in trace amounts. The alloy has moderate corrosion resistance, high hardness, and is heat-treatable. Following hardening, 420 can reach a Rockwell hardness of 50–55 HRC and a tensile strength of about 700–800 MPa. When annealed, it has good ductility and can be polished to a high sheen. 420 is renowned for its strength, durability, and economical performance in a range of mechanical and cutting applications. It is also magnetic under all circumstances.

Applications requiring high hardness and moderate corrosion resistance frequently use stainless steel 420 Hex Bars. The production of surgical instruments, cutlery, pump shafts, valve components, and machine parts are among the frequently used applications. Because of their strength and machinability, these hex bars are preferred in sectors like petrochemical, industrial tooling, medical, and automotive. 420 hex bars are perfect for parts that are subjected to friction or contact stress because they perform well under wear and abrasion when hardened and tempered. They are also appropriate for precision-finished or aesthetically pleasing components due to their ability to achieve a bright polish.
