Stainless Steel DIN X39Cr13 EN 1.4031 AISI 420 Steel Strips Sheets and Plates

Stainless Steel DIN X39Cr13 EN 1.4031 AISI 420 Steel Strips Sheets and Plates

AISI 420X, UNS S42000, EN 1.4031, DIN X39Cr13 stainless, martensitic 13% Cr grade

1.4031 is used in the quenched and tempered condition in a host of constructional applications
where moderate corrosion and abrasion resistance is required. Due to its higher carbon content,
1.4031 is more hardenable than 1.4028 and as such is suitable for use as a blade material.
As for other martensitic grades, optimal corrosion resistance is attained when the steel is in
the hardened condition and the surface is finely ground or polished.
