Excellent weldability, oxidation resistance, and thermal stability, ideal for heat exchangers, exhaust systems, and industrial applications.
Weston Stainless, located in Midland, UK, is a prominent supplier of high-quality stainless steel materials that offer sound solutions for industrial use. One of its specialized products, Stainless Steel 405 Tubing, is produced using grade 405 stainless steel, a ferritic alloy with enhanced weldability, oxidation resistance, and lower hardenability. Widely available in seamless, welded, and ERW (Electric Resistance Welded) types, this tubing can be used where moderate corrosion resistance, thermal stability, and structure are needed. With a combination of iron, chromium, and controlled carbon, Stainless Steel 405 Tubing finds extensive usage in the automobile industry, heat exchangers, and in high-temperature conditions.
Stainless Steel 405 Tubing contains 11.5-14.5% chromium, ≤ 0.08% carbon, with trace amounts of manganese, silicon, phosphorus, and sulfur, providing high oxidation and corrosion resistance. It provides tensile strength of 415 MPa, yield strength of 205 MPa, and hardness up to 89 HRB with good mechanical integrity. Having a density of 7.7 g/cm³ and a melting point of approximately 1450°C, it has superior thermal stability and moderate strength. Its controlled carbon and aluminum levels in its composition reduce hardening, making it more machinable and weldable.
