Houston, USA-based George Metals is a renowned manufacturer and supplier of Stainless Steel 440C Square Bars and Rods, providing high-quality, high-strength materials designed for durability and resistance to wear. Renowned for their exacting manufacturing and excellent surface finish, these square bars and rods are perfect for applications requiring both mechanical strength and precise dimension. Stainless Steel 440C, which is a high-carbon martensitic stainless steel alloy, provides maximum hardness for stainless steel when heat treated. George Metals supplies industries including tooling, aerospace, medical, and mechanical engineering with high-performance square profiles specifically designed for applications where critical, high-load components are required.
Square Bars and Rods of Stainless Steel 440C consist of an alloy with 16–18% chromium, 0.95–1.20% carbon, and trace amounts of manganese, molybdenum, and silicon. This alloy allows for superb hardness (up to 60 HRC), fair corrosion resistance, and outstanding wear and abrasion resistance. Mechanical characteristics are tensile strength of 760–1000 MPa, yield strength of 450–600 MPa, and fair ductility. The Stainless Steel 440C Square Bars/Rods product is a combination of strength, machinability, and toughness—particularly after heat treatment—and thus ideal for demanding applications under abrasion and mechanical stress.
