Introduction

Our XM-19 stainless steel round bars are engineered for demanding applications in industrial machinery and precision engineering. This high-strength, nitrogen-enhanced austenitic stainless steel offers a superior combination of exceptional strength, excellent corrosion resistance, and good fabrication characteristics. It is the ideal choice for components that must perform reliably in harsh environments, from chemical processing equipment to high-stress aerospace parts.

Key Features & Benefits

• High Strength: Offers significantly higher yield strength than conventional stainless steels like 304 and 316, allowing for lighter-weight designs and higher load-bearing capacity.

• Excellent Corrosion Resistance: Provides outstanding resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion, and stress corrosion cracking (SCC), especially in chloride-containing environments.

• Good Toughness & Ductility: Maintains excellent toughness and formability even at cryogenic temperatures, making it suitable for a wide range of operating conditions.

• Non-Magnetic: Exhibits a stable austenitic structure, remaining non-magnetic in all conditions.

• Ease of Fabrication: Can be machined and welded using standard methods, offering good manufacturability for complex components.
