Alloy 440B Stainless Steel is a high carbon chromium steel which is manufactured in rod, bar and coil. (AISI 440B ~ Stainless Steel). For all stock and size availability contact Sales.
Material Properties
This steel is designed to provide stainless properties with excellent hardness. In some respects it behaves similarly to tool steel. Chronifer M 17B resists corrosion from mild atmospheres, fresh water steam, ammonia, many petroleum products and organic materials and several mild acid environments.
Availability
