AISI 430 Stainless Steel Coil – Product Overview

The AISI 430 Stainless Steel Coil is a highly versatile, ferritic stainless steel product known for its excellent corrosion resistance, formability, and cost-effectiveness. It is made from an alloy primarily consisting of iron, chromium (16-18%), and a minimal amount of carbon, offering a balance between mechanical strength and flexibility. AISI 430 is widely used in various industries where moderate corrosion resistance and excellent surface finish are required. This stainless steel coil is commonly used in the automotive, appliance, and construction industries, as well as in architectural applications. Yuanchi Metal provides high-quality AISI 430 stainless steel coils that meet strict quality standards, ensuring durability and performance.
