416 steel bars are used in particular applications that require good mechanical properties and also involve corrosive conditions which are not too rigorous such as: valves, machine parts, bolts, valve parts, screws, pistons, pump rods, cutlery, food industry machine parts, etc.
These materials can be formed and drawn in an annealed condition.
We do offer 416/416L round bars that are particularly used for parts where resistance to oxidation is required like compressor shrouds. It is useful at relatively high temperatures only when there are low stresses.
416 steel‘s superior resistance to corrosion can be obtained by polishing and hardening.
