There are many examples that can be used alternately in some of the same fields, so there are always many examples of alternation, so some people will always ask 430 stainless steel and 304 stainless steel which is better?
430 stainless steel has good thermal conductivity and mechanical properties. Building decoration, fuel -burning parts, home appliances, home appliance components and other fields, 430 stainless steel is better; while 304 stainless steel has strong toughness and corrosion resistance. And food medical care industries that need corrosion resistance, 304 stainless steel is better.
Comparison of 430 stainless steel and 304 stainless steel performance:
1. Corrosion resistance: 430 stainless steel contains 16.00-18.00%, basically no nickel metal, 304 stainless steel contains chromium nickel metals, so 430 stainless corrosion resistance is not as good as 304 stainless steel.
2. Stability performance: 430 stainless steel is the shape of ferrite, 304 stainless steel is the austenitic form, and 304 stainless steel is more stable than 430 stainless steel.
3. Toughness: 304 stainless steel has strong toughness, stronger than 430 stainless steel.
3. Thermal conductivity: 430 stainless steel's iron body is better than 304 stainless steel.
4. Mechanical properties: 430 stainless steel adds stable chemical elements titanium. The mechanical performance of the weld is better than 304 stainless steel.
The field of use of 430 stainless steel:
1. 430 stainless steel is mainly used for building decoration, fuel burning parts, home appliances, and home appliances.
2. Add 430F of steel types with easy cutting performance on 430 steel, which are mainly used for automatic lathe, bolts and nuts.
3. Add Ti or NB to 430 steel, reduce the C content to 430LX, which improves the processing performance and welding performance. Essence
304 field of stainless steel:
1. 304 stainless steel has the characteristics of high temperature resistance, good processing performance, and high toughness. It is widely used in the industry and furniture decoration industry and the food medical industry.
2. 304 stainless steel has a strong corrosion resistance and is widely used to make equipment and parts that require good comprehensive performance (corrosion resistance and molding).
430 stainless steel and 304 stainless steel have advantages:
430 stainless steel has good thermal conductivity and mechanical properties. Building decoration, fuel burning parts, home appliances, home appliance components, etc. 430 stainless steel is better;
304 stainless steel has strong toughness and corrosion resistance. In industries such as industrial and food medical care, 304 stainless steel is better.
