441 stainless steel sheet is a niobium stabilized ferritic stainless steel product with excellent corrosion resistance. Kloeckner Metals proudly supplies it nationwide throughout our network of 40+ branches.
441 stainless steel sheet is a ferritic stainless steel that is niobium stabilized. It shows good high temperature strength as well as creep, oxidation, and corrosion resistance.
This stainless steel grade provides some of the best strength in high temperature and gas exhaust environments. One of the disadvantages of this stainless steel grade is that it shows diminished weld quality when compared across the 400 stainless steel category. It is not heat treatable.
It is seen in the architecture, food service, automotive, and appliance industries.
This grade is most suitable for drawn parts and bent tubing. Applications include appliances, heat exchangers, food and kitchen equipment, and automotive exhaust systems.
It has good machinability.
It has limited weldability.
This stainless steel grade cannot be hardened by heat treatment.

ANSWER:
Both of these stainless steel grades have a ferritic microstructure. However, 441 has the addition of niobium as a stabilizer and a much higher chromium content. This produces a stainless steel that has more creep, corrosion, and oxidation resistance at even higher temperatures. They share many of the same applications, including automotive exhaust systems and tubular manifolds. One reason 409 might be chosen over 441 is for its improved weldability, or where end uses require significant weldments.
ANSWER:
At 18% vs. 11%, the higher chromium content in 441 gives it the extra boost of corrosion and oxidation resistance.
ANSWER:
Kloeckner Metals supplies 441 stainless steel in 2B and 2D, #3 and #4 polish, appliance and rolled on, and bright annealed finishes.
