Stainless steels - Part 1: List of stainless steels
Abstract
This document lists the chemical composition of stainless steels, which are subdivided in accordance with their main properties into corrosion resistant steels, heat resistant steels and creep resistant steels (see Annex C) and specified in the European Standards given in Table 1. Table 1 - Overview of material standards for stainless steels (...) Reference data on some physical properties are given in Annex E, Tables E.1 to E.8. Empirical formulae for steel grade microstructure classification and pitting resistance ranking are given in Annex D. NOTE 1 A matrix that shows which steels are included in which standard is given in Annex B. NOTE 2 General purposes include the use of stainless steels in contact with foodstuffs. NOTE 3 Valve steels are specified in EN 10090. NOTE 4 Steel castings are specified in various European Standards (see Bibliography). NOTE 5 Tool steels are specified in EN ISO 4957. NOTE 6 Welding consumables are specified in various European Standards (see Bibliography).
