Stainless Steel 202 Hex Bar is an austenitic stainless steel alloy that typically contains around 17–19% chromium, 4–6% nickel, and 7.5–10% manganese. This alloy is known for its good toughness, moderate corrosion resistance, and high strength, all at a more affordable price compared to SS 304. It boasts a tensile strength of about 515 MPa, a yield strength of around 275 MPa, and an elongation of nearly 40%. SS 202 also offers decent weldability and formability. While it may not be as corrosion-resistant as higher-grade stainless steels, it performs admirably in non-aggressive environments, making it suitable for general engineering and structural applications.
