416
General
TYPE 416 STAINLESS STEEL IS A MARTENSITIC ALLOY WITH ADDED SULFUR, WHICH PROVIDES EXCEPTIONAL MACHINABILITY—THE BEST AMONG STAINLESS STEELS. THE SULFUR ALSO ENHANCES NON-GALLING PROPERTIES, MAKING IT IDEAL FOR PRECISION MACHINING. WHILE CORROSION RESISTANCE IS MODERATE, IT CAN BE IMPROVED THROUGH HARDENING AND TEMPERING. FORMABILITY AND WELDABILITY ARE LIMITED. AVAILABLE IN HARDENED, TEMPERED, OR UNHARDENED CONDITIONS, TYPE 416 OFFERS A COST-EFFECTIVE SOLUTION FOR APPLICATIONS REQUIRING HIGH MACHINABILITY.
Uses
PRECISION SHAFTS, VALVES, SCREWS, GEARS, PUMP COMPONENTS & FITTINGS.
