SS410 stainless steel

Introduction

We manufacture sheets, coils, and plates in stainless steel specifically for SS410, designed for moderate corrosion resistance and good Mechanical properties in general engineering applications.

Ss410 is a martensitic stainless steel with medium chromium content that provides high strength, good hardness, and moderate corrosion resistance. It is suitable for applications where strength and wear resistance are important, such as cutting tools, valves, and pumps.

This grade can be heat treated to improve Mechanical properties and is commonly used in industrial equipment exposed to moderate corrosive environments.

Chemical composition

Element Content (%) Function / effect
Carbon (c) 0.08 – 0.15 Provides hardness and strength
Chromium (cr) 11.5 – 13.5 Provides corrosion resistance and hardness
Manganese (mn) 0.30 – 0.80 Improves strength and toughness
Silicon (si) Max 1.00 Improves oxidation resistance
Phosphorus (p) Max 0.040 Controlled to improve toughness
Sulphur (s) Max 0.030 Controlled for better machinability

Mechanical properties

  • Tensile strength: 500 – 700 MPa
  • Yield strength: 275 – 450 MPa
