Ferritic Stainless Steel
Ferritic steels contain trace amounts of nickel, 12-17% chromium, less than 0.1% carbon, along with other elements such as molybdenum, aluminum or titanium.
metallurgy
- Magnetic
- Non hardening by heat treatment
- High ambient temperature strength
- Resistant to chloride stress corrosion cracking
- Subject to hydrogen embrittlement
- Subject to ductile brittle temperature embrittlement
- Low carbon grades easy to weld
