Does Not Harden Overtime by Heat Treatment
It has been used in automatic screw machines for parts requiring good corrosion resistance, such as aircraft parts, gears, etc. 430F is not recommended for vessels containing gases or liquids under high pressure. The safe scaling temperature for continuous service is 1500ºF (816ºC). The low coefficient of expansion of 430F Stainless makes it useful for moderately high temperature applications.
