430 / 1.4016
The material 1.4016 is a ferritic steel grade. It has a higher chromium content than 1.4003 or another 13% chromium steel. Therefore the corrosion resistance is higher. Good Corrosion resistance is evident in media with low aggressiveness and low Chloride ion concentration, such as in a home environment, natural water and solvents. 1.4016 is not resistant to seawater. 1.4016 is resistant to intergranular corrosion in supplied status, but not after welding or processing at elevated temperatures.
