For over a decade, Tariku Metals has been a cornerstone of industrial supply in Addis Ababa, providing exceptional materials to Ethiopia’s growing manufacturing and construction sectors. We pride ourselves on offering not just products, but reliable partnerships, and our Stainless Steel 446 Rectangular Bars are a prime example of this commitment. These bars are specially selected for their outstanding ability to withstand high-temperature and corrosive environments, making them a trusted choice for demanding projects where failure is not an option.
The strength of Stainless Steel 446 lies in its unique composition, which features a higher chromium content than many other grades. This specific alloying gives the material exceptional resistance to scaling and oxidation at elevated temperatures, often up to 1100°C. Mechanically, these rectangular bars offer good tensile strength and durability, and their structure allows them to maintain integrity under continuous thermal cycling, providing long-term performance in the toughest conditions.

When selecting Stainless Steel 446 Rectangular Bars, consider factors like temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, and the specific environmental conditions. Additionally, ensure compatibility with the required mechanical properties and fabrication needs.
Stainless Steel 446 Rectangular Bars are not ideal for cryogenic applications due to their reduced toughness at low temperatures. For cryogenic use, materials with better low-temperature properties, like austenitic stainless steels, are recommended.
Stainless Steel 446 Rectangular Bars generally do not require additional corrosion protection coatings due to their inherent high corrosion resistance. However, in highly aggressive environments, coatings may be used for added protection.
This impressive resilience makes Stainless Steel 446 Rectangular Bars indispensable in several demanding fields. They are commonly fabricated into vital components for high-temperature furnaces, industrial heating elements, and heat treatment equipment. You will also find them in critical parts of power generation systems and within the chemical processing industry, where their resistance to corrosive atmospheres is essential. For projects that must endure intense heat without compromising strength, these bars from Tariku Metals offer a proven and dependable solution.
We provide products that come with both mill test certificates and third-party test certificates, ensuring the highest standards of quality and compliance.
