Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 316-12.7X1828.8 is a 316 stainless steel round rod measuring 0.5 inches in diameter and 6 feet (72 inches) in length. Grade 316 stainless steel offers superior corrosion resistance compared to 304 grade, making it well suited for environments exposed to moisture, chemicals, or marine conditions. This rod meets ASTM A276-91A specifications, confirming consistent mechanical properties and chemical composition. It is a solid, unthreaded bar stock used in fabrication, machining, repair work, and custom component manufacturing across multiple trade and industrial applications.

This round rod is appropriate for multi-purpose use in residential, commercial, and light industrial settings. Typical applications include custom brackets, shaft stock, support structures, weld-in fittings, and plumbing or HVAC fabrication work where corrosion-resistant hardware is required. Machinists, fabricators, pipefitters, and maintenance technicians commonly work with this type of bar stock. Its 316 alloy composition makes it a preferred choice in environments with exposure to chlorides, saltwater, or acidic cleaning agents.
