Aisi 442
AISI 442 is a high-chromium ferritic stainless steel designed for high-temperature oxidation resistance and thermal stability. Its elevated chromium content provides better corrosion and heat resistance than standard ferritic grades such as 430 keluli tahan karat.
- Penerangan
AISI 442 is a ferritic stainless steel grade known for its excellent oxidation resistance, high chromium content, and good high-temperature performance. Compared with common ferritic stainless steels such as 430 keluli tahan karat, AISI 442 contains a much higher chromium content, giving it superior corrosion resistance and heat resistance in oxidizing environments.
This material is commonly used in furnace parts, peralatan rawatan haba, industrial exhaust systems, and high-temperature structural components.
1. Chemical Composition of AISI 442 Keluli Tahan Karat
AISI 442 is a high-chromium ferritic stainless steel.
Komposisi Kimia Biasa
| unsur | Kandungan Biasa |
|---|---|
| Chromium (Cr) | 18.0% – 23.0% |
| Karbon (C) | ≤ 0.20% |
| Mangan (Mn) | ≤ 1.00% |
| silikon (Dan) | ≤ 1.00% |
| Fosforus (P) | ≤ 0.04% |
| Sulfur (S) | ≤ 0.03% |
| Nikel (Dalam) | Low or trace |
The high chromium content is the key factor responsible for the material’s oxidation and corrosion resistance.
