Stainless Rectangle Bar 304 offers a great mix of strength and corrosion resistance in most situations outside of marine environments. If your project is in a marine environment, choose 316 stainless. 304, the most popular stainless alloy in the world, maintains its properties in high temperature situations. It is typically used in aerospace, food and beverage industry, pressure containers, architectural designs and trim, cryogenic applications, and chemical processing equipment.

This stainless rectangle bar measures 0.25 inches in thickness and 5 inches in width, made from 304 stainless steel alloy. It offers a good balance of strength and corrosion resistance, with an ultimate tensile strength of 85 ksi and a yield tensile strength of 35 ksi.

Yes, custom cut lengths are available from the warehouse, with maximum lengths up to 144 inches. Various length options are offered in stock, allowing you to select the size that best fits your project needs.

While 304 stainless steel provides excellent corrosion resistance in most environments, it is not recommended for marine applications. For marine use, 316 stainless steel is preferred due to its superior corrosion resistance in such conditions.

Yes, MTRs are available for this product, and it complies with RoHS and REACH regulations. It also meets ASTM and AMS standards such as A276, A479, F899, and others, ensuring quality and traceability.

This bar is commonly used in aerospace, food and beverage, pressure containers, architectural trim, cryogenic applications, and chemical processing equipment due to its strength, corrosion resistance, and high-temperature performance.
