Type 410 Stainless Steel for Mildly Corrosive Environments

Applications of Type 410 Stainless Steel

410 stainless steel is ideal for use in the manufacture of highly stressed parts found in a variety of industries including petrochemical, automotive and power generation.

Mechanical Properties of Type 410 Stainless Steel

The mechanical properties of Type 410 Stainless Steel are provided in the table below.

UNS No	Grade	Proof Stress 0.2% (MPa)	Tensile Strength (MPa)	Elongation A5(%)	Hardness Max
					HB	HRB
S41000	410	205	450	20	217	96

Due to the hardening capabilities of this steel, other properties and the resulting performance of this material are somewhat compromised. The alloy can only effectively be used in mildly corrosive environments. The operating temperature range is limited a) a loss of strength by over tempering at elevated temperatures and b) a loss of ductility at sub-zero temperatures.
