Welcome to Tariku Metals, your trusted partner in Addis Ababa for industrial-grade materials. We are proud to supply and manufacture premium Stainless Steel 455 bars and rods, providing Ethiopian industries with a reliable and high-performance foundation. Our commitment is to deliver materials that not only meet rigorous international standards but also empower the growth and durability of local engineering and construction projects, right here from the heart of our operations.
At its core, Stainless Steel 455 is a martensitic, precipitation-hardening grade known for an excellent strength-to-weight ratio. Its composition includes chromium for corrosion resistance and nickel for toughness, with key additions of copper and niobium that contribute to its impressive hardness and mechanical strength after a simple heat treatment process, making it both robust and versatile for demanding applications.
