430 Stainless Steel Coil Cold Rolled 2B Ferritic Magnetic Grade 0.3mm-2.0mm 1000mm 1219mm for Home Appliance Use
430 Stainless Steel Coil - Ferritic Magnetic Grade 2B Finish
Our 430 stainless steel coil is a straight-chromium ferritic stainless steel (16-18% Cr) offering good corrosion resistance combined with excellent formability at an economical price point. As a magnetic stainless steel, it provides a cost-effective alternative to austenitic 304 for applications where extreme corrosion resistance is not the primary requirement. This grade is in high demand across India, Africa, Middle East, and South American markets for home appliances, kitchenware, and automotive components.
Key Features
- Cost-Effective Solution: Significantly lower cost than 304 grade due to the absence of nickel, making it ideal for price-sensitive markets
- Magnetic Properties: Ferritic structure allows use in induction-compatible cookware and magnetic attachment applications
- Good Corrosion Resistance: 16-18% chromium provides adequate protection in mild atmospheric, freshwater, and indoor environments
- Excellent Formability: Low work hardening rate enables deep drawing for kitchen sinks, pots, and appliance panels
- Thermal Conductivity: Higher thermal conductivity than austenitic grades, beneficial for heat exchange applications
