Stainless steel 455 is a martensitic, age-hardenable alloy yielding strength characteristics that are roughly 3 times the strength of standard 304 stainless. 445 resists staining in normal atmospheres and shows no corrosion in fresh water, good ductility and toughness. This alloy is extremely stable during heat-treating making it able to be machined to close tolerance prior to aging.
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.
Grade 302 is a slightly higher carbon version than 304. 302 stainless steel is an extremely tough, ductile grade that demonstrates superior corrosion resistance. It is a non-magnetic grade that is not hardenable by heat treating. It is generally used in the annealed condition and is noted for its ease of fabrication and formability.
Stainless 304, also known as 18-8 stainless, is the most common steel used in a variety of uses because of the ease in which it can be formed into various shapes. Non-magnetic and highly resistant to corrosion makes it a good all-purpose stainless.
