We manufacture sheets, coils, and plates in stainless steel specifically for SS430, designed for general purpose ferritic stainless steel applications with good corrosion resistance and excellent formability.
Ss430 is a low-nickel, high-chromium ferritic stainless steel known for its good corrosion resistance, good mechanical properties, and excellent surface finish. It is widely used in domestic appliances, automotive parts, and industrial equipment where moderate corrosion resistance and good formability are required.
This grade offers cost-effectiveness with stable microstructure and good weldability.
| Element | Content (%) | Function / effect |
| Carbon (c) | Max 0.12 | Low carbon for good ductility and weldability |
| Chromium (cr) | 16.0 – 18.0 | Provides corrosion resistance and oxidation protection |
| Nickel (ni) | Max 0.75 | Low nickel content for cost effectiveness |
| Manganese (mn) | Max 1.00 | Improves strength and hardenability |
| 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 |
SS430 Is An Excellent Choice For Applications Requiring Moderate Corrosion Resistance, Good Appearance, And Cost Efficiency. Its Ferritic Structure Provides Good Resistance To Oxidation And StreSS Corrosion Cracking, Making It Suitable For Indoor And Mildly Corrosive Environments.
| Grade | Chromium (%) | Nickel (%) | Key applications | Comments |
