409 stainless steel angle bar/bars

409 stainless steel is an economical ferritic stainless steel known for its good corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance and low cost. 409 stainless steel has a low carbon content, usually less than or equal to 0.03%, and a chromium content between 17.0-19.0%. It also contains elements such as manganese, silicon, nickel, phosphorus, sulfur and titanium, and the content of each element is strictly regulated. For example, the carbon content does not exceed 0.08%, the manganese and silicon contents do not exceed 1.00% respectively, and the nickel content does not exceed 0.50%. The yield strength of 409 stainless steel is greater than or equal to 175MPa, the tensile strength is greater than or equal to 360MPa, and the elongation is greater than or equal to 25%. Due to its good high temperature resistance, 409 stainless steel is often used in automotive exhaust systems to improve the efficiency of the system and reduce exhaust emissions. In addition, it is also suitable for equipment that requires high temperature resistance, such as home heating furnaces, farm equipment and fuel filters.

Features of 409 stainless steel angle steel:

Corrosion resistance:
409 stainless steel has excellent exhaust gas and atmospheric corrosion resistance, which is better than 410 martensitic grade stainless steel with 12% chromium content and 3CR12. However, its corrosion resistance is lower than 430 grade steel with 17% chromium.

High temperature resistance:
409 stainless steel can withstand temperatures up to 675°C during continuous operation and up to 815°C anti-scaling under intermittent conditions. These temperatures are related to specific service environments.

Mechanical properties:
409 stainless steel has medium strength, good formability and overall cost-effectiveness.

Cost-effectiveness:
409 stainless steel is one of the cheapest types of ferritic stainless steel and is commonly used as automobile exhaust pipes.

Environmental protection:
409 stainless steel is an environmentally friendly material that can be recycled and reused. Major automobile manufacturers use 100% stainless steel in exhaust systems.

Wide application:
409 stainless steel is widely used in automobile exhaust systems, construction, machinery and other fields.

Welding performance:
409 stainless steel can use 430 and 409 grade filler electrodes or welding rods during welding, but AS1554.6 strongly recommends the use of 309 grade welds or welding rods. In order to reduce grain growth, care should be taken to weld 409 stainless steel with the least amount of heat.

Grain structure:
409 stainless steel has almost no α→γ phase transformation from high temperature to low temperature, so the grains grow easily, coarse ferrite structure appears, and the strength is low.

Chemical composition:
409 stainless steel contains 11% chromium, which is the minimum amount to form a passive surface film that makes stainless steel corrosion-resistant.

Surface treatment:
The surface of 409 stainless steel is susceptible to mild corrosion, which limits the use of steel for decorative purposes.
