| Allegheny Ludlum Al 410S™ stainless steel is a low-carbon modification of Type 410 stainless steel. Low carbon and optionally a small addition of titanium and /or columbium minimize austenite formation at high temperatures, thereby restricting the alloy's ability to harden. The material remains soft and ductile even when the material is rapidly cooled from above the critical temperature. This low hardening characteristic helps to prevent cracking when the steel is welded or exposed to high temperature. The alloy is completely ferritic in the annealed condition. Typical applications include tower packing, distillation trays, automotive exhaust components, and other high-temperature applications. Information provided by Allegheny Ludlum Corporation. |
