Composition and properties

Stainless steel AISI 403 (1.4024) with a high content of chrome is a corrosion-resistant low carbon steel containing finely dispersed carbides. Hire this steel is produced according to the standards of ASTM and after melting in an electric arc furnace has the following chemical composition:

In addition to the above chemical elements in the steel composition of AISI 403 (1.4024) are available such metallurgical impurities such as phosphorus and sulfur. Manufacturer of technological ways to reduce the quantities of these impurities up to the following values: sulphur: 0,030%, phosphorus — 0,045%.

This steel grade is unique in European standard UNS, but there is sufficient close in its properties to a domestic analogue, which is the stainless steel grade 15Х12. This steel is produced according to technical requirements GOST 5632, and has a chemical composition that is shown in the following table:

After the second metallurgical corrosion resistant steel AISI 403 (1.4024) has the following physico-mechanical characteristics:

• The plastic limit, MPa, not exceeding 312;
• The limit of strength, MPa, not higher than 481;
• Relative tensile elongation not lower than 41%;
• The relative narrowing in the cross section is not below 34%;
• Brinell hardness number is 33 units. (scale In).

This material lends itself well to different types of heat treatment. For example, can be made ezuprechnaya annealing, the purpose of which is to increase the plastic volume metal. The annealing process is conducted in the temperature range 600 to 650⁰ C, With subsequent slow cooling of the material. Bars and wire in AISI 403 (1.4024) are well deformed at room temperatures, and pipe rolling of the steel is easily welded using conventional technical solutions. The wire of the considered steel can be mnogovershinnoe drawing, with subsequent high-speed multi-position landing on automated equipment. In the cold extrusion process with significant deformations of the steel is hardened, so between transitions forging is expedient to provide ezuprechnaya annealing.

Application

Bulk metal — pipes, wire, wire — stainless steel AISI 403 (1.4024) is used for the manufacture of parts such as bodies of rotation (bushings, axles, cylinders, etc.) that are installed in high temperature components operating at elevated pressures and temperatures and in corrosive environments. Steel is used in metallurgical units, air treatment and compressor installations that require durability at temperatures up to 600⁰ C. the Volume of the rolled steel is used for manufacturing important products of chemical manufacturing, and pipelines that are pumping chemically active environments.

Buy a rod, tube or wire made of stainless steel AISI 403 (1.4024) is advantageous because the deliveries are made in a wide assortment, and at prices from the manufacturer. Company Electrocentury-steel ensures a high quality of production and the availability of appropriate certificate for each lot of purchased metal.
