Stainless Steel Suppliers,Stockholders & Stockists There are three types of stainless steel, Martensitic, Ferritic and Austenitic. Free cutting grades of Martensitic and Austenitic specifications are available which offer considerable machining advantages, particularly for the production of repetition turned parts. Either selenium or sulphur is used as free cutting additive. Martensitic stainless steels can be hardened and tempered to give tensile…

Special Steels with the addition of Lead (Pb) and Sulphur (S) differ from standard case hardening and direct hardening steels because of the addition of a quantity of Lead (Pb) about 0.15 to 0.35% and Sulphur (S) about 0.25 to 0.35%. This greatly improves machinability and therefore faster running times to produce components. Thanks to their machinability these steels are…
