Key Features
- Material Grade: 430 ferritic stainless steel (magnetic, excellent resistance to oxidizing acids and atmospheric corrosion).
- Surface Options: 2B finish (cold rolled, heat treated, pickled, skin-passed) for general applications; BA finish (bright annealed under controlled atmosphere) for a mirror-like, reflective surface ideal for decorative use.
- Thickness Range: 0.5mm – 3.0mm, with tight tolerance (±0.02mm for thin gauges, ±0.05mm for thicker).
- Width & Length: Standard sizes (1000mm × 2000mm, 1219mm × 2438mm, 1250mm × 2500mm, 1500mm × 3000mm) and custom cuts available upon request.
- Standard Compliance: Our plates conform to ASTM A240, JIS G4305, and GB/T 3280, ensuring dimensional accuracy and mechanical properties.
- Surface Quality: No scratches, pits, or stains; edge trimming is precise.
- Packaging: Waterproof paper, steel strapping, and wooden pallets for sea-freight protection.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1. What is the difference between 2B and BA surface finish?
2B is a cold-rolled, heat-treated, pickled, and skin-passed finish with a matte appearance, while BA is a bright annealed finish produced under a controlled atmosphere, resulting in a mirror-like reflective surface. BA is often used for decorative purposes, while 2B is suitable for general industrial applications.
2. Is 430 stainless steel magnetic?
Yes, 430 is a ferritic stainless steel and is magnetic, unlike austenitic grades such as 304 or 316. This property can be beneficial for certain applications like magnetic separators or induction cooktop panels.
3. Can this plate be welded?
430 stainless steel can be welded using standard techniques (TIG, MIG, resistance welding). However, due to its ferritic structure, preheating and post-weld heat treatment may be required to avoid brittleness. We recommend consulting your welding engineer for specific parameters.
4. What are the typical applications of 430 stainless steel plate?
Common uses include kitchen sinks, range hoods, dishwasher liners, refrigerator panels, automotive exhaust systems, decorative trim, elevator panels, and heat exchangers where mild corrosion resistance is adequate.
5. Do you provide cut-to-size or custom dimensions?
Yes, we offer custom width, length, and shape cutting. Minimum order quantity may apply for non-standard sizes. Please contact us with your specific requirements.
6. How is the product packaged for export?
Each plate is interleaved with protective paper, secured with steel straps, and packed on wooden pallets or in crates. For sea freight, we use waterproof wrapping and fumigation-free pallets to ensure safe arrival.
7. What standards do your 430 plates comply with?
Our plates are manufactured in accordance with ASTM A240, JIS G4305, and GB/T 3280. We can also provide inspection certificates upon request.
8. What is the typical lead time?
For standard sizes and thicknesses, lead time is 15–20 days after order confirmation. Custom orders may require 20–30 days. We always strive to expedite urgent orders.
