409 stainless steel is a ferritic stainless steel commonly used in machinery, construction and other engineering. Due to the existence of austenite grains, its mechanical properties are greatly improved. And due to the addition of a lot of alloying elements, the strength and hardness are also greatly improved. It has good mechanical properties and high temperature corrosion resistance. It contains 11% chromium, the minimum required to form a passive surface film that makes stainless steel corrosion resistant. It combines good high temperature corrosion resistance with moderate strength, good formability and overall cost.
409 stainless steel is a ferritic stainless steel that contains about 11% chromium. It is commonly used in applications where high-temperature corrosion resistance is required, such as automotive exhaust systems and heat exchangers.
Some of the key properties of 409 stainless steel include:
Corrosion resistance: 409 stainless steel has excellent corrosion resistance to exhaust gas and atmospheric corrosion.
Heat resistance: 409 stainless steel exhibits good resistance to high-temperature oxidation and scaling.
Weldability: It is easily weldable and can be welded using common welding techniques.
Formability: 409 stainless steel can be easily formed into complex shapes using various forming techniques.
Cost-effective: It is a low-cost stainless steel and provides excellent value for money in various applications.
Overall, 409 stainless steel is a highly versatile and reliable material that provides excellent corrosion and heat resistance properties at a low cost, making it a popular choice in various industrial applications.
