409(L) Stainless Steel Coil

Product Description

Description:

Type 409 Stainless Steel (UNS S40900) is a stabilized ferritic stainless  steel that provides improved oxidation and corrosion resistance compared to  carbon steel. Ease of fabrication combined with its corrosion resistance and  economy have significantly broadened its utilization in automotive exhaust and  other non-automotive applications. ASTM A240 defines three (3) sub categories of  Type 409 stainless steel; UNS S40910, UNS S40920 and UNS S40930. Each of these  designations has a slightly different Ti or Nb stabilization requirement. Each  of these compositions can be supplied as UNS S40900 unless the purchaser  specifically identifies a specific composition. It is produced with enhanced  formability characteristics known as “High Performance” or “Ultra Form” in the  industry.

Specifications:

ASTM A240

Typical Applications: Automotive exhaust systems applications such as  manifolds exhaust pipes, catalytic converters, mufflers, tail pipes and other  components. Non-automotive exhaust applications such as home heating systems,  automotive thermostats and fuel filters, electrical transformer cases, caskets  and heat exchanger tubing.

Forming:

409 stainless can be cut, blanked stretch formed and drawn without  difficulty. The formability characteristics of Type 409 are very similar to  carbon steel.

Welding:

Type 409is readily welded using the conventional welding procedures common to  carbon steel. These include high frequency, resistance, gas tungsten arc (GTAW  or TIG), gas metal arc (GMAW or MIG), electron beam and laser techniques.  Although autogenous welds are common, particularly in manufacture of tubing, a  filler metal, Type 409Cb, is often employed.

Corrosion:

The corrosion resistance of 409 stainless is about the same as Type 410  stainless steel. Type 409 offers improved corrosion resistance in comparison to  carbon steels. However, its corrosion resistance is lower in comparison to other  stainless steels with higher chromium content. Type 409 offers sufficient  resistance to corrosion and oxidation to be used in many automotive and  non-automotive applications.
