Stainless Steel Alloy 410S

Description

Type 410S is a low-carbon, non-hardening version of Type 410 stainless steel. This general-purpose stainless steel remains soft and ductile even when rapidly cooled. Other key benefits of Type 410S include:

• Weldable by most common techniques
• Good resistance to oxidation
• Continuous services up to 1300°F (705°C)
• Similar corrosion resistance to Type 410, good in fresh water and mild organic and mineral acids

It is important to note that Type 410S has a lower carbon level than Type 410.  In order to be considered Type 410S, stainless steel must have the following chemical properties:

• Fe balance
• Cr 11.5-14.5%
• Ni 0.60% max
• C 0.08% max
• Mn 1% max
• P 0.040% max
• S 0.030% max
• Si 1% max

Because of its unique properties and chemical composition, Type 410S is useful for a variety of applications in a large range of critical industries including:

• Petroleum refining
• Petrochemical processing
• Thermal processing
• Gate valves
• Press plates
• Heat exchangers
• Ore processing and mining machinery

We are supplies Type 410S stainless steel in a number of different forms and sizes all of which meet some of the toughest international standards including, ASTM A 240 and ASME SA 240.
