409 Ni (Nickel Modified) Stainless Steel
409 Ni (Nickel-Modified) Stainless Steel
409 Ni Stainless Steel is a nickel-modified variation of standard Type 409, designed to enhance corrosion resistance, toughness, and weld-ability. With improved strength and durability, 409 Ni is an ideal choice for applications exposed to high temperatures and demanding environments.
Key Features & Benefits
- Enhanced Corrosion Resistance – The addition of nickel improves resistance to oxidation and harsh conditions.
- Superior Weld-ability & Form-ability – Easier to fabricate for complex shapes and high-performance applications.
- High-Temperature Performance – Performs well in extreme heat, making it ideal for exhaust and heat-exchange systems.
- Cost-Effective Alternative – Provides improved performance over standard 409 while remaining economical.
Common Applications
409 Ni Stainless Steel is widely used in:
- Automotive and non-automotive exhaust systems
- Power generation and heat exchangers
- Silencers and fuel filters
- Agricultural and industrial equipment
- Furnaces, woodstoves, and transformers
- Tubing and structural components
