| 1.4006 X12 Cr 13 |
410 | This grade of stainless steel can be hardened by heat treatment and therefore has a wide range of mechanical properties. It has low resistance to corrosion when compared with austenitic grades, but this is balanced by a low cost. This grade strongly responds to a magnetic field. | springs, pressings |
| 1.4028 X30 Cr 13 |
420 | Properties very similar to those of 1.4006, this grade, with increased Carbon content, has improved potential hardness and wear / abrasion resistance. | springs, knives and cutting edges generally,doctor blades and similar printing industry wear and scraping applications |
| 1.4122 X39 Cr Mo 17-1 |
- | With
the addition of 1% Molybdenum and increased Chromium this alloy has
improved corrosion resistance and hardenability. |
