Directory of stainless steel grades

Stainless steel AISI 439 | EN 1.4510 | DIN X3CrTi17 is a stabilized nickel-free grade. It is characterized by a high level of resistance to corrosion and oxidation, including sea water and high-concentration acids. This steel has a ferrite structure, which provides it with high resistance to intercrystalline corrosion. It has excellent physical and mechanical properties.

AISI 308L | EN 1.4316 | DIN X1CrNi19-9 is a grade of stainless steel that is an austenitic stainless steel intended for welding (welding wire) and for primary molding into forged products. Among forged austenitic stainless steels, it has moderately low tensile strength and moderately low ductility.

AISI 434 | EN 1.4113 | DIN X6CrMo17-1 is a ferritic stainless steel, one of the most widely used ferritic stainless steels. The addition of molybdenum improves the overall corrosion resistance of this alloy and makes it resistant to chemicals. The steel combines good resistance to temperature and oxidation. It has good mechanical properties.

AISI 316L | EN 1.4435 | DIN X2CrNiMo18-14-3 is a modified austenitic stainless steel with extremely low silicon content and much higher molybdenum content. Low carbon content combined with good chemical balance (low silicon and nickel content of about 14%) makes the alloy fully austenitic without precipitation of intermetallic phases.

Stainless steel AISI 305 | EN 1.4303 | DIN X4CrNi18-12 is a chromium-nickel austenitic stainless steel with a low degree of strain hardening due to the increased nickel content. This alloy is well suited for multi-stage deep drawing without process annealing. The metal of this stainless steel is non-magnetic under annealing and cold working conditions and has corrosion resistance similar to stainless steel AISI 304, AISI 304L.
