Grading Quality Characteristics
General features | Explanation |
Corrosion Resistance | The 430 quality stainless steel material does not have a very high resistance to crushing. This stainless steel grade, which is generally used for decorative purposes, is suitable for price maintenance and it is recommended in places where the problem of rusting will not be much. The outdoor environment and humid environment may cause this material to rust. |
Vulnerability to be beaten | The material 430 (1.4016) is not recommended for the forging and this quality may break during the forging. |
Weldability | 1.4016 quality material is not a suitable stainless steel quality for welding, and welding is not recommended. |
the machinability | The workability of the 430 quality material is average, and it can be preferred in the environment where the sulfur added version is 430F quality intensive treatment. |
Usage Areas
430 stainless steel bar and in recent years the use of material produced from this quality is increasing rapidly in the world and Turkey. It is not recommended to use materials of this quality in parts with moving parts and collisions.
430 stainless steel is used in various ways for decorative purposes, in the automotive industry, in washing machines, in bright applications, in household appliances and in kitchenware.Especially in dishwashers and refrigerators 430 quality materials are used.
