Unlike its fellow austenitic grade 304, stainless steel 303 contains additions of sulfur or selenium in its alloy. While the inclusion of sulfur is referred to as stainless steel 303 round bars, the addition of element selenium is referred to as 303se, where the term se indicates that the metal has been alloyed with selenium. The machinability properties of WNR 1.4305 square bar have been optimized by either of these two elements. Hence, if the application calls for superior machinability properties, this alloy is the appropriate choice. Along with an improvement in its machinability,303 Steel Cold Finished Bars have superior galling characteristics as well.
However, in comparison to grade 304, the corrosion resistance of this alloy grade tends to be lower. Though the addition of sulfur, which improves machinability, it also results in certain drawbacks seen in the ASTM A479 UNS S30300 hex bar. Firstly, the alloy’s resistance to corrosion becomes lower. Next, its toughness properties are slightly impaired. Furthermore, those regions in the microstructure of astm a276 type 303 flat bar which contain sulfur act as initiators for corrosion by means of pitting. But for both intermittent and continuous use, the alloy exhibits good resistance to oxidation, up to temperatures 927°C. Yet, manufacturers do not recommend using the JIS SUS 303 black bar at temperatures exceeding 760°C, solely because of higher carbon content, promoting carbide precipitation.
A phenomenon which in turn results in irregular scaling in the 303 stainless steel rod. Generally, lower carbon-containing alloys are resilient to becoming susceptible to sensitisation, unlike the 303 stainless steel welding rod. While welding this material is not recommended, it is a task that could be undertaken by welding the AISI 303 threaded bar with the aid of electrodes produced in stainless steel grade 310. Annealing performed on this alloy has its benefits including dissolution of carbide precipitates and achievement of a high machining rate, with the hardness property of the ss 303 bright bar valued between a range of 200 to 240 Brinell.
