Austenitic Steel with Molybdenum316, 316L, 316Ti, 904L
Ferritics409, 410S, 430, 430L, 430Ti (439), 441, 444
  • Magnetic
  • Low Carbon
  • Main alloying element is chromium, typically 10.5-17%
  • Good formability
  • Low cost
  • Good stress corrosion cracking resistance
  • Moderate ductility
  • Limited corrosion resistance
  • Cannot be hardened by heat treatment
Martensitics410, 420, 431
  • Can be magnetic or non magnetic
  • Low Carbon
  • Main alloying element is chromium, typically 12 to 15%, molybdenum (0.2-1%)
  • Hardened by quenching and tempered to give improved toughness and ductility
  • Less resistant to corrosion compared to Austenitic and Ferritic grades.
  • Limited formability and welding capabilities
Precipitation hardening17/4PH, 17/7PH
  • Contains Aluminium or Copper
  • High work hardening rates
  • Very high strengths
  • Better Corrosion resistance compared to martensitics
  • Limited availability
  • Lower corrosion resistance, formability and weldability compared to austenitics
Duplex309, 310
  • Magnetic
  • Low Carbon
  • Combined Austenitic-Ferritic structure
  • Chromium typically 21-26%
  • Nickel typically 3.5-6.5%
  • Superior tensile strength in annealed condition
  • Good corrosion and pitting resistance
  • Lighter weight
  • Lower cost due to lower Nickel content
  • Cannot be hardened by heat treatment, but offers higher annealed strength levels than Ferritic or Austenitic grades
  • Restricted application temperature range when compared to Austenitics
* cold working of the less alloyed grades will induce structural changes leading to increased levels of magnetism.
