Stainless 430 belongs to ferritic stainless grade. The 430 Stainless Steel Sheet non-hardenable steel component is designed with an excellent chemical composition consisting of chromium with small additions of nickel. This 430 SS Sheet offers excellent corrosion and oxidation resistance in an array of stress-induced environments. The highly tolerant 430 Grade Stainless Steel Sheet shows enhanced resistance to cracking by organic, acetic, nitric, and phosphoric acids.

SS sheets and plates are the two most common shaped components within this stainless grade. The thickness of a SS 430 plate is above 6mm. These modules are utilized in providing rigidity and support to different modules. A 430 Stainless Steel Sheet Thickness is less than 6mm. These components are devised to provide an aesthetical appeal to the module along with weight saving.

Stainless Steel 430 & Stainless Steel 304

Stainless 430 and 304 belong to two different spectrums in the stainless grade.

• A 430 SS Plate is designed with a chemical composition of 16-18% chromium and 0.50% nickel. A 304 has a chemical content of 18% chromium coupled with 8% nickel.
• The ASTM A240 Type 430 Plate offers limited weldability compared to the excellent weldability offered by the 304 grade.
• The 304-grade components can be hardened but, the ASME SA240 430 Stainless Sheet cannot be hardened.
• Having a maximum intermittent service temperature of 850 degrees C, the 304 grade shows high ductility and formability. The SS 430 Shim Sheet is less ductile and formable compared to this grade.
• The austenitic 304 grade is more expensive when put in direct comparison with the ferritic UNS S43000 Strip.

Stainless 316 grade is designed with a superior chemical concentration of chromium, nickel, and molybdenum. In comparison, the SS 430 shows the presence of higher chromium content and a small amount of nickel. The excellent chemical composition gives the 316 grade higher tolerance and resistance across different stress-induced environments compared to the 430 grade. The 316 stainless grade has better mechanical properties, however, the thermal properties of both these grades are identical. The 430 grade is cheaper in comparison to the 316 SS grade.
