Ferritic Stainless Steel
Ferritic Stainless Steel
Named because they have the same structure as iron at room temperature, ferritic stainless steel strip uses no nickel but has a minimum chromium content of 11%.
Ferritic stainless steel strip offers fair corrosion resistance and good formability at low cost.
Low cost – High Performance Steel strip
Ferritic stainless steels are the ideal solution for high volume applications, particularly in the domestic environment where moderate corrosion resistance is acceptable. Good examples include hinges and stays in the UPVC window hardware industry.
Special Properties – Metal strip
Ferritic stainless steel strip, especially 1.4016 (AISI 430) and 1.4113 (AISI 434), can be manufactured with a highly reflective surface and are popular in areas such as automotive trim.
