Unique Features:

430 Stainless Steel Rod is unique for its ferritic structure, which gives it a good balance of formability and strength, making it ideal for fabrication processes such as bending and forming. This grade offers excellent resistance to corrosion in a variety of mild environments and is highly resistant to scaling at high temperatures. Unlike austenitic grades, 430 stainless steel is magnetic, which makes it suitable for applications where magnetic properties are required. It is often used in situations where low cost and high resistance to oxidation are important, such as in appliance parts, automotive trim, and some architectural applications.
