Stainless steel sheet/strip type 430 cold rolled finish BA

Product description

Ferritic stainless steel. Of the ferritic stainless steel grades, this is the most commonly used type. The material lends itself perfectly to polishing and has good deep drawing properties. It does not lend itself as well to other forming techniques such as bending. Sharp bends parallel to the rolling direction must be avoided under all circumstances. In the case of thicknesses exceeding 3 mm, the material must be preheated (100 - 300 °C) when bending to a small bend radius. This grade is only weldable to a limited extent.The resistance to corrosion is lower than in the case of the austenitic grades. Consequently, the 1.4016 grade is mainly used in non-aggressive environments or where no demanding requirements relating to corrosion resistance apply. For example household appliances, interior design, cutlery, bumpers, wheel covers, etc.
