George Metals, based in Houston, USA, is a reliable manufacturer and supplier of **446 Stainless Steel Bars and Rods**, providing strong, heat-resistant bars and rods for high-temperature and oxidizing conditions. 446 Stainless Steel is a ferritic alloy that is famous for its excellent scaling and oxidation resistance at temperatures up to 1100°C. George Metals guarantees precision manufacture of every rod and bar and rigorous testing to international standards for delivery of assured performance and durability. They are extensively employed in thermal processing, metallurgy, furnace parts, and exhaust systems where heat, corrosion, and thermal fatigue resistance is essential.
**446 Stainless Steel Bars and Rods** contain primarily 23–27% chromium, with minimum carbon content (up to 0.20%), and minor amounts of molybdenum, silicon, manganese, and sulfur. These contents give high oxidation and corrosion resistance at high temperatures. Their mechanical properties are tensile strength 485–620 MPa, yield strength 275 MPa, and elongation 20–25%. The product, **Stainless Steel 446 Bars/Rods**, cannot be hardened through heat treatment but possesses good high-temperature strength, thermal conductivity, and resistance to corrosion in sulfur-containing and carburizing atmospheres.
