  • FERRITIC - MARTENSITIC STAINLESS STEEL
430

Description

Nb-stabilized ferritic rod for 17% Cr stainless steels
Rod that deposits niobium-stabilized ferritic stainless steel, capable of maintaining good ductility even after heat treatment. The niobium is essential for preventing intergranular corrosion and improving high-temperature strength. Suitable for welding similar base metals, overlays in the automotive industry, and exhaust systems production, this rod generally requires preheating and post-welding heat treatment, depending on the required operating temperature.

Description

Application

Ferritic stainless steel 430 stands out for its excellent ductility when subject to heat treatments. This material is used in the welding of similar base metals, welding overlays, and thermal spraying. It is predominantly used for overlays on sealing surfaces of valves for gas, water, and steam, creating wear-resistant stainless steel coatings. During welding, it is essential to perform preheating and post-weld heat treatment to achieve the best mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. The composition is expertly balanced to provide sufficient chromium content to ensure adequate corrosion resistance in common applications while maintaining optimal ductility under heat treatment conditions. Niobium and/or titanium-stabilized variants are available, specifically developed for the automotive industry and used in the manufacture of exhaust systems. In these cases, preheating and post-weld heat treatment are also required.
