JIS SUS420J1 EN 1.4021 AISI 420A Cold Rolled Precision Stainless
Steel Strip Coil
Martensitic stainless steels typically contain 12 to 17% chromium
and nickel in a range of 0 to 5%.
The low nickel content ( compared to austenitic stainless steels )
offers the secondary advantage of a lower material cost.
They fall into 4 subgroups.
1. Fe-Cr-C steels, there were the first grades put into use and
still widely used in engineering
and in wear resistant applications.
2. Ni-bearing grades, in which Ni replaces some of the C. Compared
to the previous group,
they offer a higher toughness particularly at low temperatures.
Their higher Chromium content leads to a higher corrosion
resistance.
Molybdenulm additions in groups 1 and 2 improve further the
corrosion resistance.
3. Precipitation hardening stainless steels, offer the best
combination of strength and toughness.
4. Creep resisting steels, with about 11% chromium, differ from
subgroup 1 by additions of Co. Nb,
V and B which increases of high temperature strength and creep
resistance up to 650℃.
