Stainless steel (1.4310) AISI 301

Stainless steel is also known as inox steel or inox from the French inoxydable. The AISI 300 Series represents by far the largest group. The various types within this alloy group are derived from the traditional 18/8 composition (18% Cr/8% Ni). The structure even consists at ambient temperature, and sometimes far below, entirely of austenite, which is due to the presence of nickel in a ratio of about 8%. When it has reached a fully austenitic structure, the material is not ferromagnetic and offers good corrosion resistant.
Type 301 is a stainless steel with unusually high uniform elongation when correct composition balance and deformation conditions are achieved. It is suitable for extreme cold deformation. As a result of moderate to extreme cold deformation, its tensile strength increases significantly while retaining reasonable toughness. It is often used in the cold-rolled or cold-drawn state. Applications include counter tops, hubcaps, architecture and construction elements, high-strength springs, all kinds of clips, banisters, balustrades, etc.
