416 BS EN 10088-3
Description:
Grade 416 stainless steel is a martensitic heat treatable chromium steel. Grade 416 has the highest machinability of any stainless steel due to the addition of sulphur which forms manganese sulphide inclusions, this sulphur addition also lowers the corrosion resistance, weldability and formability.
This alloy is magnetic in all conditions and is widely used to manufacture screws, nuts, bolts, fasteners, gears and pinions.
