304 Stainless Steel Round Bars

Request 304 Stainless Steel Round Bars with the required standard, dimensions, tolerance, finish, inspection and mill test certificates from SAKY METAL.

Technical procurement data

Standards, supply and inspection

304 Stainless Steel Round Bars 304 stainless steel round bar is a general-purpose chromium-nickel grade for machined components, food equipment, architectural hardware and moderately corrosive service. Orders should define the required condition because cold-drawn, peeled, ground and hot-finished bar provide different tolerances and surface characteristics.

Material / gradeAISI 304 / UNS S30400; EN 1.4301 may be supplied when the order requires an EN designation.
Product formRound bar
Standards and order referenceCommon order references include ASTM A276 or ASTM A479, with ASTM A484/A484M general requirements. The purchase order and MTC govern final compliance.
Dimensions and tolerancesDiameter, length, straightness, end condition and machining allowance are confirmed against the drawing or purchase order. Tighter tolerances should state the target class rather than rely on a nominal diameter alone.
Surface and supply conditionHot finished, cold drawn, peeled, centreless ground or polished; surface condition and protective packaging are agreed for the intended machining route.
Inspection optionsPositive material identification, dimensional checks, visual surface inspection and ultrasonic testing can be defined according to diameter and criticality.
MTC and traceabilityEN 10204 3.1 mill test certificate, heat number traceability, inspection report and packing list are available with the shipment.
Typical applicationsMachined shafts, fasteners, food-processing parts, pump components, architectural fittings and general corrosion-resistant hardware.
RFQ checklistSend the round bar grade and standard, required dimensions and tolerance, quantity, surface/condition, inspection and certificate requirements, packing preference and delivery destination.

Final compliance is defined by the purchase order, approved drawing and issued mill documentation. Availability is confirmed for each grade, size and production route.

304 Stainless Steel Round Bars procurement guidance

304 stainless steel round bar is a general-purpose chromium-nickel grade for machined components, food equipment, architectural hardware and moderately corrosive service. Orders should define the required condition because cold-drawn, peeled, ground and hot-finished bar provide different tolerances and surface characteristics.

How to specify the order

Common order references include ASTM A276 or ASTM A479, with ASTM A484/A484M general requirements. The purchase order and MTC govern final compliance. Diameter, length, straightness, end condition and machining allowance are confirmed against the drawing or purchase order. Tighter tolerances should state the target class rather than rely on a nominal diameter alone.

Inspection and traceability

Positive material identification, dimensional checks, visual surface inspection and ultrasonic testing can be defined according to diameter and criticality. EN 10204 3.1 mill test certificate, heat number traceability, inspection report and packing list are available with the shipment.

Typical applications

Machined shafts, fasteners, food-processing parts, pump components, architectural fittings and general corrosion-resistant hardware.

Final material compliance is confirmed against the purchase order, approved drawing and issued mill documentation.
