ASTM A240 standard chromium and chromium nickel stainless steel plate, sheet and strip for pressure vessels and

general applications

Material AISI 446, UNS S44600, Heat resistant ferritic stainless steel (not stabilized)

446 is a ferritic stainless steel with more than 23% of chromium content.

Thus its corrosion resistance is among the best within the ferritic stainless grades.

Stainless alloy 446 stands well thermal oxidation with a good behavior against scaling off phenomena,

it is commonly used for applications where temperature range is in between 800 and 1150°C.

446 is a ferritic stainless steel grade which stands well liquid metal contact like copper or brass.

Thus it is well adapted to electrical applications where there are close contacts between stainless steel,

copper and brass. Thermal expansion coefficient of 446 being close to special glasses ones so it is

often used in metal-glass sealed junctions.

Long exposure to temperature in between 350 and 800°C leads to an evolution of the metallurgical structure of the

material which may become brittle (sigma phase or ferrite de-mixing).

Applications

• Sealing glass metal
• Electrical conductors for lighting
• Parts assembly in contact with copper or brass
• Parts for glass moulds
