Our round bars are produced in strict compliance with ASTM A484 standards and undergo a full annealing process to ensure excellent formability and corrosion resistance. With an annual export value exceeding US$50 million and a dedicated team of 51–100 employees, we guarantee consistent quality and reliable supply for global buyers.
These rods are widely used in automotive parts, kitchen equipment, architectural trim, and industrial machinery. The 201 grade offers an economical balance of strength and corrosion resistance, making it a popular choice for projects where cost efficiency is key without sacrificing performance. Our products are ISO9001 certified, ensuring traceability and quality control from raw material to finished product.
Below we detail the key features, specifications, and benefits of our 201 stainless steel round bars.
Key Features & Benefits
- Excellent Workability: Annealed condition provides low hardness and high ductility, ideal for bending, drawing, and machining.
- Corrosion Resistance: 201 stainless offers good resistance to atmospheric corrosion, mild acids, and organic substances.
- Cost-Effective: Lower nickel content compared to 304 makes it a budget-friendly option for non-critical applications.
- High Strength: Yields a tensile strength of approximately 520 MPa, suitable for structural and support purposes.
- Magnetic Properties: 201 is slightly magnetic in the annealed state, which can be an advantage for certain applications.
- Surface Quality: Bright, smooth surface with no visible defects; can be supplied pickled or with a protective coating upon request.
- Customizable Lengths: Available in standard 3m, 6m, or cut to your specific requirements.
- Global Shipping: We export to North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa, and Oceania with reliable logistics partners.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Q: What is the difference between 201 and 304 stainless steel?
A: 201 has lower nickel content and higher manganese, making it more economical. It offers slightly lower corrosion resistance than 304, but is still suitable for many indoor and mild outdoor applications. -
Q: Are these rods suitable for welding?
A: Yes, 201 stainless steel can be welded using standard techniques such as TIG or MIG. However, post-weld heat treatment may be required to restore corrosion resistance in the weld zone. -
Q: Can you supply rods with a specific length that is not standard?
A: Absolutely. We can cut rods to any custom length between 1m and 6m. Please specify your required length when placing an order. -
Q: Do you provide a mill test certificate?
A: Yes, we can issue a mill test certificate (MTC) according to EN 10204 3.1 or 2.2, as well as a material test report for each batch. -
Q: What is the surface finish of the annealed rods?
A: The standard finish is bright annealed or pickled, which gives a clean, slightly matte appearance. We can also provide a polished finish upon request. -
Q: How long is the delivery time for a typical order?
A: For stock sizes (6mm, 8mm, 10mm), delivery usually takes 7–15 days after receiving deposit. For custom sizes or large quantities, please allow 20–30 days. -
Q: Are these rods magnetic?
A: 201 stainless steel is slightly magnetic in the annealed condition due to its austenitic structure with some ferrite. This is normal and does not affect its performance. -
Q: What packaging options do you offer?
A: We use steel strapping bundles, waterproof wrapping, or wooden crates for export. For fragile applications, we can also provide individual PVC sleeves.
