Alloy 410 is the basic, general purpose martensitic stainless steel that is used for highly stressed parts and provides good corrosion resistance plus high strength and hardness. Alloy 410 contains a minimum of 11.5% chromium which is just sufficient enough to demonstrate corrosion resistance properties in mild atmospheres, steam, and many mild chemical environments. It is a general purpose grade that is often supplied in the hardened but still machineable condition for applications where high strength and moderate heat and corrosion resistance are required. Alloy 410 displays maximum corrosion resistance when it’s been hardened, tempered, and then polished.

Possible alternative grades
Grade |
Reasons for choosing the grade |
416 |
High machinability is required, and the lower corrosion resistance of 416 is acceptable. |
420 |
A higher hardened strength or hardness than can be obtained from 410 is needed. |
440C |
A higher hardened strength or hardness than can be obtained even from 420 is needed. |
Applications: The applications of grade 410 stainless steel are as follows:
It can be used in pump shafts, valve components and gas and steam turbine components.
It is also intricate surgical and dental instruments.
Many automobile companies utilise it in automobile parts.
It is also used for making cutlery, gate valves and press plates.
Petroleum Refining industries, Ore and Sugar industries use it for equipment used for processing.
