Abstract

Due to recent nickel price volatility, ferritic stainless steels,having no or very low nickel content, can be very interestingto stainless steels users. Ferritic represents only about26% of the total stainless steel production nowadays. Thepaper presents the ferritic stainless steel family: mechanicalproperties of the grade including drawability as well ascorrosion resistance properties. Experimental data of thenewly developed 20% Cr ferritic grade are discussed andcompared to the properties of existing 200 and 300 seriesgrades. High temperature properties of ferritic stainlesssteels designed for exhaust systems are also presented.
