Introduction Of Several Alternatives To 304 Stainless Steel
1. TTS443 ferritic stainless steel with high corrosion resistance without nickel and molybdenum
2. 436L/444 ferritic stainless steel with excellent corrosion resistance and formability
3. Economical and practical 301 series austenitic stainless steel
TTS443 ferritic stainless steel with high corrosion resistance without nickel and molybdenum
Features of TTS443
1. Excellent corrosion resistance
1) The chromium content is increased to 21%, which has the same excellent corrosion resistance as SUS304
2) Because the impure substances such as carbon and nitrogen are reduced, and the stabilizing effect is added
Titanium can maintain good corrosion resistance after welding.
2. Excellent molding performance
Molding performance is the same as 436L, superior to 430
3. Price advantage and stability
1) Because there is no need to add nickel, the price is cheaper than SUS304
2) Because there is no need to add nickel and molybdenum, even if the prices of these two metals increase, it will not be affected

304 | 7.93 | 70 | Non-magnetic | 500 | 16.2 | 17.3 | 193 |
Compared with 304:
Low density, under the same weight, the material utilization rate can be increased by 2.5%;
Good thermal conductivity;
The coefficient of thermal expansion is small.
Weldability
Due to the reduction of impurity carbon and nitrogen elements and the addition of stabilizing titanium element, the corrosion resistance of the welded joint is very superior.
When welding dissimilar steel with 304, the corrosion resistance may be greatly reduced, please be aware. (Measures: limit the dissolution of T443 in the weld metal; change the material (304L)).
Compared with 304, because of the low thermal expansion coefficient and high thermal conductivity, it is not easy to deform after welding.
436L/444 ferritic stainless steel
436L/444 Features
Reduce impure substances such as carbon and nitrogen, and add elements such as molybdenum and titanium, which have excellent corrosion resistance and formability;
It is more resistant to stress corrosion than SUS304 in harsh corrosive environments such as coastal atmosphere decoration and pools;
No need to add nickel, the price is cheaper than SUS304.
