465 Stainless steel is a premium melted, martensitic, age-hardenable alloy with excellent resistance to stress corrosion cracking, fracture toughness and excellent notch tensile strength.
Stainless 304, also known as 18-8 stainless, is the most common steel used in a variety of uses because of the ease in which it can be formed into various shapes. Non-magnetic and highly resistant to corrosion makes it a good all-purpose stainless.
Of the 400 series of stainless steels, 400C has the highest carbon content and moderate corrosion resistance and can heat-treat to the highest harness of RC 60. (In contrast, 416 is normally heat treated to RC 26/32)
Stainless Steel 416 is a corrosion resistant chromium steel alloy that is non-seizing, non-galling, free machining metal widely used in automatic screw machines. Its short brittle chips make it ideal for increased machining speeds, larger cuts, and longer tool life.
