Stainless & Special Steel Grades and Quality Assurance

From widely specified stainless grades to specialty steel programs for strength, corrosion resistance, machining, fabrication, and demanding service.

Austenitic stainless

303, 304 / 304L, 316 / 316L, 316Ti, 310S, 321, 347

Ferritic stainless

405, 409, 430, 430F, 434, 441

Martensitic stainless

403, 410, 416, 420, 431

Duplex / super duplex

S31803 / S32205 (2205), S32304 (2304), S32750

Precipitation hardening

17-4 PH, 15-5 PH, 17-7 PH, 13-8 Mo

Alloy & tool steels

4130, 4140, 4340, 8620, 52100, H11, H13

Specialty focus

Duplex and precipitation-hardening steels extend the program for strength and corrosion-resistance requirements. Ask about grade-specific heat treatment, including solution-annealed and aged conditions.
