Moda 430Ti/4520
Moda 430Ti/4520 is an alternative to Moda 430/4016 with better formability and weldability for stamping, drawability applications, and complex shapes. It is a medium-chromium ferritic stainless steel that can be used in many mildly corrosive environments. Because of its titanium alloying, Moda 430Ti/4520 can be welded in all dimensions without becoming susceptible to intergranular corrosion. It is possible to use Moda 430Ti/4520 at elevated temperatures, like for instance in the cold end of automotive exhaust systems.
Typical applications
- Counter tops
- Flue induction connectors
- Automotive applications

Moda 4589
Moda 4589 is a 14% chromium product with a small amount of niobium for elevated strength, making it suitable for structural parts exposed to loads that demand higher yield points.
Moda 4589 is a structural medium-chromium martensitic-ferritic stainless steel with enhanced wear resistance. Due to its chromium content and its molybdenum alloying, it can be used in many mildly corrosive environments. Because of its titanium content, Moda 4589 can be welded in all dimensions without becoming susceptible to intergranular corrosion.
Typical applications
- Conveyor chains
- Railroad cars

Moda 410L/4003
Moda 410L/4003 is a weldable ferritic stainless steel with elevated yield strength and resistance to abrasion. Its better corrosion resistance compared to carbon steels enables lower maintenance costs and longer service life.
Outokumpu Moda 410L/4003 is a low-chromium structural ferritic stainless steel. Its corrosion resistance is limited in applications with increased corrosiveness. Moda 410L/4003 can, however, replace carbon steel in many structural applications. When some discoloration in more aggressive environments is not acceptable, Moda 410L/4003 may be painted.
Moda 410L/4003 is available in many product forms and dimensions, often also from stainless steel stockholders.
Typical applications
- Railroad and road vehicles
- Shipping containers
- Industrial applications
- Mining conveyors

Moda 409/4512
Moda 409/4512 is a weldable ferritic stainless steel with good oxidation resistance in dry air. This product is also available as low-carbon Moda 409L. Its corrosion resistance is limited in applications with increased corrosiveness. Because of its titanium alloying, Moda 409/4512 can be welded in all dimensions without becoming susceptible to intergranular corrosion. It is possible to use Moda 409/4512 in high-temperature applications, for instance in automotive exhaust systems, where it is often used to replace aluminium-coated carbon steel.
Typical applications
- Automotive applications
- Industrial exhaust systems

per ambienti moderatamente corrosivi
Gamma Moda
La gamma Moda include gradi di acciaio inossidabile ferritico per ambienti moderatamente corrosivi con un valore PRE < 17. Il grado ferritico più utilizzato, Moda 430/4016 (EN 1.4016), è un classico acciaio inossidabile ferritico non stabilizzato al 16% di cromo. Le applicazioni tipiche sono attrezzature da cucina, elettrodomestici, lavelli e ascensori.
Moda 410L/4003 (EN 1.4003) è un acciaio inossidabile ferritico non stabilizzato al 12% di cromo progettato per applicazioni strutturali, quali telai degli autobus, con buone caratteristiche di saldatura e buone proprietà di impatto a temperature sotto zero.
La gamma Moda offre anche prodotti ferritici stabilizzati, ad esempio Moda 409/4512 (EN 1.4512), che è particolarmente adatto per alcune applicazioni automobilistiche. Inoltre, la gamma Moda di acciai inossidabili ferritici può vantare una lavorabilità paragonabile a quella degli acciai al carbonio di qualità per stampaggio profondo. Per quanto riguarda le caratteristiche di saldatura, i bassi livelli interstiziali e gli stabilizzanti aggiunti hanno apportato enormi miglioramenti agli acciai inossidabili ferritici. Inoltre, la distorsione e l'instabilità sono molto inferiori durante la saldatura rispetto a quelle degli acciai inossidabili austenitici o duplex a causa della minore dilatazione termica e della maggiore conduttività termica.
I gradi della gamma Moda possono essere utilizzati in un'ampio ventaglio di applicazioni, con il supporto di una vasta selezione di finiture superficiali fornito da stabilimenti e Centri servizi.
