430 stainless steel sheet is a popular ferritic stainless steel product. Kloeckner Metals proudly supplies it nationwide across our network of 55+ branches.

430 stainless steel sheet is a non-stabilized ferritic stainless steel. It has a higher percentage of chromium content which makes for a highly corrosion resistant, heat tolerant, stainless steel with oxidation resistance and good mechanical properties.
This stainless steel grade provides good resistance to corrosion, oxidation, and heat up to 1500°F. It is non-hardenable and non-stabilized. Given it is a non-stabilized ferritic stainless steel, it is less readily welded and may not be suitable for applications requiring extensive or critical weldments.
This grade is common in the food service, architecture, oil and gas, automotive, and appliances industries.
It can be used for automotive trim and molding, gutters, roofing, and siding as well as restaurant equipment and appliances.
It has good machinability.
It is weldable to a degree.
It is not heat treatable.
