Key Attributes & Processing

Category	Description
Chemical Composition	16–18% Cr, ≤0.12% C, ≤1.0% Mn, stabilized with Ti/Nb for enhanced intergranular corrosion resistance
Heat Treatment	Annealed at 800–900°C (air-cooled) to optimize ductility and stress relief
Cold Rolling Process	Precision cold-rolled to achieve tight tolerances (±0.02 mm) and superior surface smoothness
Magnetic Properties	Ferritic structure with inherent magnetism, ideal for electromagnetic applications

Performance Highlights

Tensile & Bending Strength

The 430 stainless steel sheet/plate delivers a tensile strength of ≥450 MPa, ensuring structural integrity in high-stress environments such as automotive exhaust systems and industrial machinery. Its ferritic microstructure provides excellent bending performance, with a minimum elongation of 20%, allowing seamless cold-forming into complex shapes like mufflers, heat shields, and architectural cladding. Cold-rolled variants (cold rolled stainless steel plate/sheet) exhibit enhanced surface uniformity and dimensional accuracy (±0.1 mm), critical for precision stamping and CNC machining.

Identification & Marking

Our sheets comply with global standards:

ASTM A240 TP430: Identified by low carbon content (≤0.12% C) and chromium stabilization.
EN 1.4016: Includes dual stabilization (Ti + Nb) for resistance to chloride-induced pitting.
Laser-etched batch numbers and material grades ensure traceability and quality assurance.

Weight Calculation

Calculate plate weight using the formula:
$Weight (kg) = Thickness (mm) \times Width (m) \times Length (m) \times 7.75 (density, g/cm^{3})$
Example: A 2 mm × 1219 mm × 2438 mm sheet weighs $2 \times 1.219 \times 2.438 \times 7.75 = 46.2 kg$ .

Corrosion Resistance & Rust Prevention

While 430 stainless steel sheet/plate offers cost-effective oxidation resistance, localized rust may occur under specific conditions:

Chloride Exposure: Chloride ions (e.g., coastal or de-icing environments) can penetrate the chromium oxide layer, leading to pitting.
Mechanical Damage: Scratches or abrasions expose the iron matrix to moisture, accelerating surface oxidation.
High-Temperature Oxidation: Prolonged exposure above 850°C may degrade the passive film. For extreme conditions, pair with protective coatings or opt for austenitic grades like 316.
