Product Name Notes
17-4 stainless steel develops its strength and hardness through heat treating. This makes it well suited to applications that require ease of fabrication and then the addition of strength/hardness for...
17-7 stainless steel develops its strength and hardness through heat treating. This makes it well suited for applications that require good formability, high strength/hardness and minimum distortion upon heat treating.
301 Full Hard differs from other forms of 301 offered by United Performance Metals in that it has been hard cold rolled to its full hard condition. This increases the...
301 stainless steel provides good strength and ductility when cold worked. It also has excellent corrosion resistance properties. 301 stainless steel is well suited to welding and forming and drawing.
301-1/2 hard differs from other forms of 301 offered by United Performance Metals in that it has been hard cold rolled to its 1/2 hard condition. This makes it ideal...
301-1/4 hard differs from other forms of 301 offered by United Performance Metals in that it has been hard cold rolled to its 1/4 hard condition. This increases the metal's...
304 stainless steel has a high resistance to corrosion and lends itself to many types of fabrication, making it one of the most widely used forms of stainless steel used...
316/316L stainless steel has a high resistance to many chemical corrodents and marine atmospheres. 316/316L stainless steels are more resistant to general corrosion and pitting/crevices than conventional austenitic stainless steels.
321 stainless steel is most similar to 304 stainless steel, however it contains the addition of Titanium making it an excellent choice for prolonged high temperature applications. The addition of...
347 stainless steel has a high resistance to prolonged heat and corrosion making it well suited for engine, power generation, welded fabrications and other high heat applications. 347 stainless steel...
Type 302 stainless steel is an extremely tough, ductile grade that demonstrates superior corrosion resistance to type 301 stainless steel. It is a non-magnetic grade that is not hardenable by...
Type 410 stainless steel is a general purpose hardenable stainless steel. Its strength, good ductility and resistance to corrosion in mild atmospheres, steam and mild chemical environments make it well...
Type A-286 is an iron-based super alloy useful for applications requiring high strength and corrosion resistance up to 1300 degrees Fahrenheit and for lower stress applications at higher temperatures. A-286...
