ASTM A276 / A276M UNS S42900
ASTM A276 UNS S42900 is a material grade specification for cold-finished or hot-finished bars in S42900 stainless steel, available in form of rounds, square, hexagons and other hot rolled extruded shapes. Ferrobend uses S42900 bar stock to ASTM A276 specifications for manufacturing stainless steel S42900 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 S42900 stainless steel round bars, square bars, hexagon bars and other extruded shapes.
