Chemical Composition of Stainless Steel 430 CR Sheet
The table below lists the chemical composition of ASTM A240 / ASME SA-240 Grade 430, UNS S43000, in the annealed condition.
This high-chromium alloy (16–18%) delivers excellent corrosion resistance. Low carbon levels and controlled impurities like phosphorus and sulfur guarantee long-term durability.
Mechanical Properties of 430 Cold Rolled Stainless Steel Sheet
These minimum values apply to SS 430 CR sheet in the annealed condition per ASTM A240 / ASME SA-240.
Grade 430's formability suits moderate bending and drawing. For deep drawing, an Nb-stabilised 430DDQ variant offers improved ductility.
| Property | Imperial | Metric |
|---|---|---|
| Tensile Strength (min) | 65 ksi | 450 MPa |
| Yield Strength, 0.2% Offset (min) | 30 ksi | 205 MPa |
| Elongation in 2 in. (min) | 22% | 22% |

Applications of Stainless Steel 430 CR Sheet
Stainless Steel 430 CR provides corrosion resistance at a reasonable price. In order to ascertain whether it is appropriate for your particular application, investigate its adaptable performance in the four primary sectors listed below:
Appliance & Kitchen Equipment
Used for durable dishwasher liners, refrigerator panels, and range hoods, where Grade 430 CR sheets excel.
Architectural & Decorative
This adaptable alloy is utilised in the construction of cladding, roofing, and lift doors for projects that are located on the interior (inland).
Automotive Trim & Components
Commonly used for shiny exterior trim strips, grille accents, and heat shields in vehicle exhaust systems.
Industrial & Chemical Processing
Ideally suited for use in tank linings, ductwork and flue components that are exposed to conditions containing dry gas or mild acids.
Stainless Steel 430 CR Sheet vs 304 Stainless Steel Sheet
Review the comparison table below to identify the primary technical and performance differences between these two grades.
Alloy 430 and SS 304 are the two most comparable stainless steel sheet grades. Grade 430 is ferritic with 16 to 18% chromium and no nickel; 304 is austenitic with 18% chromium and 8% nickel. This gap drives every difference in performance, cost, and suitability.
Key Differences Between SS 430 and 304 Sheet
| Property | SS 430 | SS 304 |
|---|---|---|
| Chromium | 16–18% | 18–20% |
| Nickel | None (0.75% max) | 8–10.5% |
| Magnetic | Yes | No (annealed) |
| Tensile Strength | 450 MPa min | 515 MPa min |
| Elongation | 22% | 40% |
| Corrosion Resistance | Moderate | High |
| Relative Cost | Lower | Higher |
