Stainless Steel Grades

Every stainless steel grade we supply, 121 pages in one index. Grouped by structure, with the equivalent designations for each grade so you can match a drawing, a mill certificate or a foreign specification to the page that carries the composition and mechanical data.

If you already know the grade, search for its number. If you are choosing between families, the structure is what decides corrosion resistance, strength and whether the part can be hardened. The magnetic behaviour of each family is a quick way to tell them apart on the shop floor.

Austenitic (300 series) (17)

The workhorse group: 301 through 347, plus 904L and the high-purity variants.

Super austenitic (10)

6 % molybdenum and above, for chlorides and seawater where 316 is not enough.

Ferritic (5)

Chromium-based, magnetic, no nickel premium.

Martensitic (27)

Hardenable by quenching: cutlery, blades, shafts and mould steels.

Duplex and super duplex (7)

Austenite plus ferrite: roughly twice the yield strength of 300 series.

Precipitation hardening (9)

Strength from an ageing treatment rather than from carbon.

Heat resisting, valve and turbine steels (30)

Grades specified for temperature, creep and valve-train duty.

Stainless steel rebar (15)

BS 6744 and equivalent reinforcement grades.

Not sure which family you need

Send the drawing or the application and we will tell you what the part actually needs — including where a cheaper grade would do. The standards library has the specifications these grades are produced to.
