Types of stainless steel casting materials
- 2019-06-06-

Model 301-Good ductility, precision cast steel is used for forming products. It can also be hardened by mechanical processing. Good weldability. Abrasion resistance and fatigue strength are better than 304 precision cast steel stainless steel.

Model 302-corrosion resistance is the same as 304, and the strength is better due to the relatively high carbon content.

Model 303-It is easier to cut than 304 by adding a small amount of sulfur and phosphorus.

Model 304-general model; namely 18/8 stainless steel. The GB grade is 0Cr18Ni9.

Model 309- has better temperature resistance than 304.

Model 316-dewaxed casting is the second most widely used steel after 304. It is mainly used in food industry and surgical equipment. The addition of molybdenum makes it a special corrosion-resistant structure. Because it has better resistance to chloride corrosion than 304, it is also used as "ship steel". SS316 is usually used in nuclear fuel recovery devices. 18/10 grade dewaxed cast stainless steel usually also meets this application level. [1]

Model 321-Except for the addition of titanium to reduce the risk of corrosion of the material welds, other properties are similar to 304.

400 series-ferritic and martensitic stainless steel

Model 408-Good heat resistance, weak corrosion resistance, 11% Cr, 8% Ni.

Model 409-the cheapest model (British and American), usually used as car exhaust pipe, is a ferritic stainless steel (chrome steel).

Model 410-Martensite (high-strength chromium steel), good wear resistance, poor corrosion resistance.

Model 416-added sulfur to improve the processing performance of the material.

Model 420-"tool grade" martensitic steel, similar to the earliest stainless steel such as Brinell high chromium steel. It is also used for surgical knives. Guangdong carbon steel casting can be very bright.

Model 430-Ferritic stainless steel, for decoration, such as car accessories. Good formability, but poor temperature resistance and corrosion resistance.

Model 440-high-strength cutting tool steel with slightly higher carbon content. After proper heat treatment, higher yield strength can be obtained, and the hardness can reach 58HRC. Guangdong carbon steel casting is among the hardest stainless steels. The most common application example is the "razor blade". There are three commonly used models: 440A, 440B, 440C, and 440F (easy processing type).

500 series-Guangdong carbon steel cast heat-resistant chromium alloy steel.

600 Series-Martensitic precipitation hardening stainless steel.

Model 630-the most commonly used Guangdong carbon steel casting precipitation hardening stainless steel model, usually called 17-4; 17% Cr, 4% Ni. , Chrome 18-20.
