The basic martensitic stainless steel 410, also known as UNS S41000, is regarded as such. containing iron and chromium in concentrations between 11.5 and 13.5 percent, as well as trace levels of other elements like carbon, manganese, phosphorus, silicon, and sulphur. 410 Stainless Steel pipe has good mechanical qualities after heat treatment, and it is magnetic in both hardened and annealed conditions.
For applications requiring high strength and moderate corrosion resistance, stainless steel 410 can be delivered in a hardened but still workable state upon request. When stainless steel 410 is hardened, tempered, and polished, its corrosion resistance is at its highest. It can be hot worked between 2000°F and 2200°F, welded utilizing the majority of welding techniques, cold formed, and annealed.

Other Properties of 410 Stainless Steel Pipe
410 Stainless Steel is martensitic stainless steel that offers great strength and hardness along with good corrosion resistance. In both the annealed and hardened states, type 410 is magnetic. 410 Stainless Steel pipe heat treatments can be used to provide a wide variety of characteristics. Applications requiring strong strength and moderate heat and corrosion resistance are ideal for 410 stainless steel. A martensitic alloy known as Type 410 is frequently provided in a hardened yet workable state. After heat treatment, Type 410 has good hardness, making it suitable for use in the creation of severely stressed parts.
Applications of 410 Stainless Steel Pipe
- A wide range of applications requires good corrosion and hardness in the C50 to C54 range.
- Cutlery, dental and surgical instruments, scissors, tapes, and straight edges, gauges, ball check valves, gear shafts, cams, pivots, and hand tools are only a few examples of the applications.
- As a result of the material’s quick softening and loss of corrosion resistance, temperatures above 800° F are not often used.
