Neptune Alloys is the market leader in the creation of Nitronic 60 Round Bar, which are wear-resistant superior quality bars designed to be heavy-duty mechanical and structural items. Nitronic 60 is a nitrogen-strengthened austenitic stainless steel that has exceptional galling, fretting and wear resistance both in the annealed and hard annealed conditions. These pump shafts, valve stems, bushings and free fasteners are most suited in chemical, marine and automobiles industries. The alloy is an appropriate trade off between corrosion resistance and high-temperature strength.
We provide Nitronic 60 bars ASTM A276, A479, and ASME SA479 to B2B engineering and industrial chains in the form of supplies. Our bars are worn tested, surface hardness, tensile strengths and corrosion pitting based whether they might be modified to accommodate certain end uses. Modifications to the products can be in diameter, length, the temper condition of the product and surface finish such as bright drawn or centerless ground. We have a very strong logistics and inventory that enables us to deliver both custom and bulk orders very quickly not only in India but in the international market.
Type of Sub-products
Nitronic 60 Rolled Round Bar
Produced via hot or cold rolling, these bars offer a consistent surface finish and grain structure across their length. Nitronic 60 rolled bars are frequently used in high wear mechanical components, tie rods, support shafts, and chemical plant hardware that require long lasting galling and fretting resistance under dynamic load conditions.
Nitronic 60 High Strength Round Bar
These bars are cold worked or strain hardened to boost tensile and yield strength while preserving corrosion and galling resistance. Designed for high load bolts, valve stems, and aerospace fasteners, Nitronic 60 high strength bars are suited for applications where metal to metal friction must be minimized without sacrificing durability.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are Nitronic 60 Round Bars resistant from corrosion?
Yes, Nitronic 60 offers excellent corrosion resistance in a wide range of environments, including seawater, acidic conditions, and mildly oxidizing chemicals. While not as corrosion-resistant as more exotic alloys like Hastelloy, it significantly outperforms 304 and 316 stainless steel in wear and chloride-rich environments. This makes it suitable for marine hardware, water treatment plants, and industrial fluid handling systems.
What sizes and finishes are available for Nitronic 60 Round Bars?
Nitronic 60 Round Bars come in sizes from 6 mm up to more than 100 mm. Common finishes include hot rolled, cold drawn, centerless ground, and bright polished, depending on the application. The bars can also be cut to custom lengths and tolerances to suit fabrication requirements. Custom orders are typically used in aerospace, marine, and hydraulic component production where tight dimensional control is needed.
Is it possible to weld and process Nitronic 60 round bars?
Nitronic 60 has good machinability compared to other austenitic stainless steels, though tools and speeds must be adjusted due to its work-hardening characteristics. Welding can be performed using standard procedures, with no need for preheating or post-weld heat treatment. Welds maintain mechanical strength and corrosion resistance when proper filler materials are used. These fabrication advantages make it ideal for custom parts and high-performance assemblies.
