STS400

For ferritic steel, chrome is one of its alloy components. This gives the steel low thermal expansion and a good resistance to corrosion. The most common austenitic stainless steel is Type 430. There are also other notable austenitic stainless steels-Types 409L, 430J1L and 444 to name a few-produced by adding different alloy elements such as Ti, Nb and Mo. Its main applications include exhaust systems and home appliances.
