410 stainless steel is a type of martensitic stainless steel with a chromium content of 11.5%, designed to provide excellent corrosion resistance. It undergoes quenching, tempering, and polishing processes to enhance both its corrosion resistance and hardness. While martensitic stainless steel is generally less corrosion-resistant compared to austenitic stainless steel, it requires a final heat treatment during manufacturing to optimize its properties. Grade 410 stainless steel is resilient against hot gases, steam, food, weak acids and bases, fresh water, and dry air. This steel is hardened to maximize its resistance to corrosion and heat. Its high strength makes it particularly well-suited for applications that demand durability and wear resistance.
Stainless steel AISI 410 has undergone a specialized heat treatment, resulting in a hardened and tempered, double-hardened product that meets NACE standards. AISI 410 is a martensitic stainless steel known for its good corrosion resistance in moderately aggressive, chloride-free environments such as organic acids, soaps, and solvents. For optimal corrosion resistance, surface polishing is recommended.
This stainless steel features a chromium content of 11.5 – 13.5% and is characterized by its low susceptibility to embrittlement, the ability to achieve a mirror finish, and its application range up to 400°C. We manufacture our AISI 410 rectangular bars to the highest standards, ensuring consistent quality throughout.
