[Bright] AF5.5-80mm Stainless Steel Hexagonal Bar with a six-sided (hexagonal) cross-section
A stainless steel hexagon bar is a solid, long metal bar with a six-sided (hexagonal) cross-section, where all sides are equal in length. It is manufactured through cold drawing or hot rolling processes to achieve precise dimensions across the flats (AF). The hexagonal shape provides excellent grip for wrenching and turning applications, making it a preferred choice for fasteners, shafts, and machined components.
Stainless steel hexagon bars offer excellent corrosion resistance, high strength, and good machinability. The hexagonal shape allows for easy gripping and tightening with standard wrenches, eliminating the need for custom tooling. Cold drawn hexagon bars provide tight dimensional tolerances (typically ±0.15 mm) and a smooth, bright surface finish. Hex bars also offer good weldability and formability for further fabrication.
Stainless steel hexagon bars are produced primarily through cold drawing. First, hot rolled round wire rod or bar is pickled to remove surface scale. The bar is then pulled through a precision hexagonal die at room temperature, which forms the six-sided shape while reducing the cross-sectional area. Multiple drawing passes with intermediate annealing may be required to achieve the final size without cracking. After drawing, the bar is straightened, cut to length, and optionally polished for improved surface finish. For larger sizes (typically above 50 mm AF), hot rolling may be used instead of cold drawing.

Stainless steel can be magnetic depending on its internal structure. Austenitic grades like 304 and 316 are normally non-magnetic, but ferritic (430) and martensitic (410) grades are magnetic due to their different crystal structure. Even 304 or 316 may become slightly magnetic after cold working such as bending or stamping, which transforms some austenite into martensite. Therefore, magnetism does not indicate quality — it simply reflects the steel's microstructure and processing history.
For standard materials and sizes held in stock, delivery is guaranteed within 3 days of payment receipt. For products requiring custom dimensions or surface finishes, the lead time is 7 to 15 working days after payment confirmation. Specific delivery schedules should be confirmed with customer service at the time of order placement.
A substantial inventory is maintained to ensure prompt delivery. Stock availability varies by material grade and dimensions. To avoid potential delays, please confirm current stock levels with your sales representative prior to placing an order.
Applicable product standards must be specified at the time of order. For projects with specific technical requirements, please provide detailed parameters, tolerance ranges, and other relevant specifications. A dedicated quality inspection department oversees all stages of production to ensure full compliance. Upon completion, accurate measurements, inspection images, video documentation, and material test reports are provided for customer confirmation.
Complimentary samples are available in any size; however, international shipping fees apply. These charges are deductible from future order payments following formal cooperation. Customized samples are also available for a fee. For further details, please consult your sales representative.
Custom markings on outer packaging are available upon request at no additional cost. Once the marking design is approved, it will be affixed using waterproof tape. If no specific marking is requested, packaging will be shipped without markings by default.
Material grade, dimensions, and other identifying information may be spray-marked directly onto the steel plate surface upon request. For applicable charges, please consult your sales representative.
Standard wooden pallet packaging is provided at no extra cost, with a loading capacity of 1 to 3 tons per pallet. Alternative packaging options, such as iron pallets, are available upon request. Please contact your sales representative for details — bulk orders qualify for preferential pricing.
We maintain partnerships with multiple freight forwarders to offer competitive land, air, and sea freight options. If you have a preferred freight forwarder, we can arrange delivery to your agent's warehouse or to the designated port of shipment.
Factory inspections and product inspections are fully supported. Customers are welcome to visit our facility for in-person inspections. Alternatively, third-party inspection agencies, including SGS, may be arranged to conduct on‑site inspections.
