Stainless steel type 1.4016 is also commonly

known as grade 430. Stainless steel 430
combines good corrosion resistance with
good formability and ductility.
Stainless Steel Grades Explained
It is a ferritic, non-hardenable plain Chromium

stainless steel with excellent !nish quality.
Stainless steel 430 also has excellent

resistance to nitric attack, which makes it well
suited to use in chemical applications. The
most popular applications for 430 are in
domestic appliances and decorative trim.
ASTM A240/A240M
Property data given in this document is typical
for bar products covered by EN 10088-3:2005.
ASTM, EN or other standards may cover
products sold. It is reasonable to expect
speci!cations in these standards to be similar
but not necessarily identical to those given in
this datasheet.

Alloy Designations
Stainless steel 430 also corresponds to the
following standard designations and
speci!cations:
Euronorm UNS BS
1.4016 S43000 430S17
Corrosion Resistance of
Stainless steel 430
Stainless steel 430 has good corrosion
resistance to a large variety of media including
nitric acid and some organic acids. The
corrosion resistance of type 430 is optimal
when it has a highly polished surface. As with
other ferritic grades, resistance to stress
corrosion cracking is very high.
Heat Resistance of Stainless

steel 430
Stainless steel 430 has good resistance to
oxidation in intermittent service to 870°C and
in continuous service to 815°C. After
prolonged heating at 400-600°C, Stainless
steel 430 may become brittle and require
annealing.
Fabrication of Stainless
steel 430
Fabrication of all stainless steel should be
done only with tools dedicated to stainless
steel materials. Tooling and work surfaces
must be thoroughly cleaned before use. These
precautions are necessary to avoid cross
contamination of stainless steel by easily
corroded metals that may discolour the
surface of the fabricated product.
Cold Working of Stainless

steel 430
Stainless steel 430 is readily cold workable but
is not quite as ductile as 304 stainless. The
advantage of 430 over 304 is that the 430 does
not work harden to the same extent.
Hot Working of Stainless

steel 430
Fabrication methods, like forging, should occur
after uniform heating to 816-1038°C. The
component should then be air cooled to room
temperature and annealed. Grain growth will
occur due to prolonged exposure to forming
temperatures. This should be avoided as
excessive grain growth can cause an ‘orange
peel’ texture on the surface of the material. As
grade 430 is commonly used in aesthetic
applications, surface !nish is extremely
important.
Heat Treatment of Stainless

steel 430
Stainless steel 430 cannot be hardened by
heat treatment.
Annealing is done by heating to 815°C, soaking

for 30minutes per 25mm of thickness, furnace
cooling to 600°C, then quickly air-cooling.
The component will become brittle if slow

cooled from 540-400°C.
Machinability
Stainless steel 430 is relatively easily
machined. Machining can be enhanced if the
following rules are adhered to:
Cutting edges must be kept sharp. Dull

edges cause excess work hardening.
Cuts should be light but deep enough to
prevent work hardening by riding on the
surface of the material.
Chip breakers should be employed to
assist in ensuring swarf remains clear of
the work
Low thermal conductivity of austenitic
alloys results in heat concentrating at the
cutting edges. This means coolants and
lubricants are necessary and must be
used in large quantities.
Welding of Stainless steel

430
Stainless steel 430 can be readily welded by all
fusion methods but preheating to 150-200°C is
recommended. Annealing at 790-815°C can
relieve embrittlement of the heat-a#ected
zone.
Depending on the application, recommended

!ller rods or electrodes are grades 430, 308L,
309 310, or 312 stainless steels.
Applications of Stainless
steel 430
Stainless steel 430 is typically used in:
Low cost sinks

Decorative trim
White & Brown Goods (washing
machines, dishwashers, cookers)
Refrigerators
Stove element supports
Scienti!c apparatus
