EN 1.4301 Stainless Steel (X5CrNi18-10) DIN EN 1.4301 stainless steel (X5CrNi18-10) is a conventional austenitic stainless steel with good resistance to atmospheric, organic and inorganic chemicals. This material is widely used due to its excellent intergranular corrosion resistance, good cold deformability, good deep drawability and weldability.
Stainless steel, also known as inox or Corrosion Resistant (Stainless) Steel ( CRES ), is an alloy of iron that is resistant to rusting and corrosion. It contains at least 10.5% chromium, usually nickel, and may also contain other elements, such as carbon, to obtain the desired properties. Stainless steel's resistance to corrosion results from
