ATI 430 low carbon ferritic stainless steel which, in mildly corrosive environments or atmospheric exposures, has corrosion resistance approaching that of some nickel-bearing stainless steels. This alloy is oxidation resistant at elevated temperatures. ATI 430 alloy is ductile, does not work harden readily, and can be formed using a variety of roll forming or mild stretch bending operations as well as the more common drawing and bending processes.

POTENTIAL APPLICATIONS
This alloy is used in a variety of interior and exterior trim applications where economy plus corrosion resistance is more important than high strength. Typical applications are sinks, sink rims, appliance trim, counter tops, dish washers, range hoods, and flatware. Other commercial applications include architectural uses, roofing, siding, and restaurant equipment.
