Stainless steel 430 is a ferritic, straight chromium, non-hardenable grade, combining good corrosion resistance and formability characteristics with useful mechanical properties. Its ability to resist nitric acid attack permits its use in specific chemical applications but automotive trim and appliance components represents its largest fields of application. Alloy 430 has poor weldability compared to most stainless steels due to the higher carbon content and lack of stabilizing elements for this grade.
Alloy 321 (UNS S32100) contains increased titanium for improved strength and heat resistance, making it ideal for applications range of 800 – 1500°F (427 – 816°C). It has excellent resistance to intergranular corrosion. A popular aircraft alloy.
Stainless steel 410 is a basic martensitic grade which contains 11.5% chromium, offering both exceptional wear and corrosion resistance. 410 is generally used for applications which involve mild corrosion, high strength, and heat resistance.
Stainless Steel 416 is a corrosion resistant chromium steel alloy that is non-seizing, non-galling, free machining metal widely used in automatic screw machines. Its short brittle chips make it ideal for increased machining speeds, larger cuts, and longer tool life.
