ASTM A276 / A276M UNS S32550
ASTM A276 UNS S32550 is a material grade specification for
cold-finished or hot-finished bars in S32550 stainless steel,
available in form of rounds, square, hexagons and other hot rolled
extruded shapes. Ferrobend uses S32550 bar stock to ASTM A276
specifications for manufacturing stainless steel S32550 bolts, nuts,
screws, studs, threaded rods, other fasteners and bar stock
components for general engineering purposes.
ASTM A276 specification covers requirements such as chemical
composition, mechanical properties, heat treatment and other
supplementary requirements for S32550 stainless steel round bars,
square bars, hexagon bars and other extruded shapes.
