Durable, resistant to external factors, and indispensable across multiple industries — this is exactly what stainless steel rods from the INOX steel center are known for. Today, we take a closer look at rods made from 1.4104 stainless steel — what makes them stand out, and where can they be used? Let’s find out!
First, let’s clarify what a rod actually is. Steel rods can differ in terms of manufacturing methods, alloy composition, and strength level — factors that determine their final application. As essential structural components, they play a key role in construction and the broader mechanical engineering industry.
1.4104 Stainless Steel
The rods available at INOX Polska are made of acid-resistant 1.4104 stainless steel. What makes this material unique? Its innovative nature lies in its composition — 1.4104 stainless steel contains sulfur, which improves its machinability. However, it’s worth noting that this addition slightly reduces the material’s resistance to corrosion, so it should not be used in environments prone to crevice or pitting corrosion.
Components made of this type of stainless steel are used in a wide range of industries, including hydraulics, food processing, automotive, and paper manufacturing. They also perform excellently in areas exposed to seawater. Additionally, 1.4104 steel is resistant to several harsh substances such as fuels, oils, and lubricants.
