This one-metre stainless steel rod from RS PRO is a handy addition to any toolbox. It's a versatile building and engineering component that's suitable for producing masonry structures as well as fasteners and components for machinery.
The rod is strong and durable yet easy to work with. It's made of austenitic stainless steel for resistance to rust, making it a good choice for use in demanding environments. The sulphur content makes it more pliable for ease of manipulation. As it has a hardness of 262 HB on the Brinell Scale, it's a mild steel material that you can easily cut cleanly, saving you from the need for time-consuming machining.
You can safely use this rod in areas sensitive to magnetism as it's non-magnetic. It's frequently found in home garages, construction sites and industrial plants.
