Bright Surface Stainless Steel Bar/Rod/Sheet 17Cr16Ni2 SUS431


1: 431 steel introduction
Grade 431 stainless steels   is   a nickel-containing martensitic stainless steel, which has better corrosion resistance and mechanical properties than straight chromium stainless steel.
The higher carbon content makes it tend to form chromium carbide, and therefore the formation of chromium-depleted areas make 1.4057 material susceptible to intergranular corrosion. However, the surface polishing can improve its corrosion resistance.

4: 431 steel mechanical properties   
   The mechanical properties mainly include tensile strength, yield strength, elongation, area or reduction, hardness, impact value, non-metalic inclusion etc. Different heat treatment, the mechanical properties will be different, such as   annealed, Solid Solution . If you want to know the properties, kindly contact the salesman.
