Welcome to Tariku Metals, your trusted partner in Addis Ababa for premium stainless steel solutions. We take pride in supplying industry-leading materials, like our high-grade Stainless Steel 17-4 PH Hex Bar and Rod. Sourced and stocked for the Ethiopian market, this versatile alloy is engineered for demanding applications where strength and corrosion resistance are non-negotiable. Trust our team to provide the reliable, high-performance materials that keep your projects and production lines moving forward, backed by our local expertise and commitment to quality.
This particular grade is a precipitation-hardening stainless steel, distinguished by its unique composition of chromium, nickel, and copper. What truly sets it apart are its remarkable mechanical properties. Through a simple heat treatment process, it can be hardened to achieve exceptional strength levels, often comparable to many high-strength steels, while still maintaining the excellent corrosion resistance you expect from a stainless alloy. This combination makes it a truly robust and durable material.
