430 Annealed Stainless Steel is the most popular of all the straight chrome stainless. It is a low carbon ferritic stainless steel which, in mildly corrosive environments or atmospheric exposures, has corrosion resistance approaching that of some nickelbearing stainless steels. This alloy is oxidation resistant at elevated temperatures. 430 Annealed is ductile, does not work harden readily, and can be formed using a variety of roll forming or mild stretch bending operations as well as the more common drawing and bending processes. This Stainless Steel is also magnetic in all conditions.
