Â鶹ÊÓƵ430CuN

High corrosion resistance, high-formabality and weldability ferritic stainless steel
<Composition> 19Cr - 0.5Cu - Nb - ultra-low (C,N) (SUS430J1L)

comparison of corrosion resistance

Pitting potential (mV vs. SCE)

Weldability

Corrosion resistance

  • Enhanced corrosion resistance, thanks to 3% more Cr than SUS430 and the addition of 0.5% Cu.
  • Reducing the C and N content and stabilizing C and N by adding Nb significantly improves both formability and weldability.

Applications

  • Automobile moldings
  • Kitchen equipment, household appliances, architectural parts/materials
  • Interior and exterior materials, etc. such as showcase items
