Round Bars for industrial supply
Solid bar for machining and fabrication. Metalex can discuss grade, form, finish, dimensional tolerances, documentation and packing with your procurement team. Confirm stock and delivery against your purchase specification.
Grades to ask about
Material grades are confirmed for the precise product and service. State the required standard and grade when enquiring.
Ordering checklist
State the grade and material standard, precise dimensions and tolerances, surface finish, quantity, certificate and delivery destination. Size range and stock are confirmed against the current enquiry; no fixed inventory is implied. For safety-critical, pressure or corrosive service, include the design code and inspection requirements so the right item can be checked.
Catalogue reference: Rods & bars
Catalogue rod/bar size: 6–350 mm; length 100 mm–6 m. It lists round, square, hexagonal and rectangular forms along with billets, ingots and forgings. Confirm diameter, tolerance, grade and condition for the actual quote.
Stainless examples: 304/304L, 316/316L, 904L, 17-4 PH; duplex S31803/S32205 and super duplex S32750/S32760. Carbon, alloy, nickel, copper-nickel and titanium families are also listed.
Metalex catalogue (2022) describes a product range, not real-time stock or a test certificate. Confirm grade, dimensions and documentation for your enquiry.

Grade selection at a glance
| Grade | Typical selection reason | Check before ordering |
|---|
| 304 / 304L | General fabrication and mild process environments | Welded assemblies: verify L-grade certification |
| 316 / 316L | Added molybdenum for improved pitting resistance in many chloride environments | Assess chloride concentration, temperature and crevices |
| Duplex 2205 | Higher yield strength and better chloride SCC resistance than common austenitic grades | Confirm UNS S32205 or S31803 and welding procedure |
Bar ordering details
Specify solid section diameter or thickness × width, cut length, straightness and tolerances, grade, heat-treatment condition and surface finish. Confirm whether your job needs machining, welding or structural use and request a matching mill test certificate.
