High-quality ferritic stainless steel "FS-1" [Special Metal Excel]
Ferritic stainless steel with a nickel content of 1%. This material has improved corrosion resistance and strength compared to SUS430.
FS-1 is a unique steel grade developed by our company, which is a ferritic stainless steel that incorporates nickel (Ni) into the representative steel grade SUS430. This allows it to maintain the characteristics of ferritic stainless steel while providing a certain level of strength and corrosion resistance. It can also be used as an alternative to SUS304, which is commonly used in general environments. The main features of FS-1 are as follows: (1) Formability superior to SUS430 FS-1 has sufficient formability compared to SUS430, allowing for high-precision press processing without causing wrinkling. (2) Strength equivalent to SUS304 FS-1 can achieve full hardness with a hardness of HV330 and tensile strength of 1100 MPa (equivalent to the strength of SUS304-3/4H). (3) Minimal impact from fluctuations in nickel prices With a nickel content of only 1%, FS-1 is largely unaffected by fluctuations in nickel prices, enabling stable cost management.
