Stainless Steel Rod Round Bar Rod 6mm x 600mm

Q: Is it possible to bend this?

It depends on the equipment you have available and the type of bend that you want. A vice is essential, and so is a former for accurate work, however, SS work hardens and you will find that initially it will easily bend then it suddenly becomes more difficult, in my experience if you then keep going it will snap. I have tried to manufacture U-bolts from this material but after two unsuccessful attempts (one cold, the other using red heat) I took the rod to an engineering shop and they completed the process. They told me that for SS you should be heating it to "yellow" heat (around 300C) then the metal bends without fracturing.

Q: Is this suitable for marine use?

I think the seller may have changed the type of stainless round bar that he is selling, however, I cannot be certain about this, because I purchased the material quite a long time ago. The material on sale is A303 which is machinable and non-hardening. The grade usually specified for marine use is A316 (AKA A4) that has a higher molybdenum content and resists corrosion better than other stainless grades. If your usage is critical, i.e. failure of the component could be an issue in an emergency, then my advice would be to look around for 316.
