Stainless Steel 439 coils are flat-rolled ferritic stainless steel, stabilised with titanium and holding 17 to 19% chromium. The grade is straight-chromium with almost no nickel, so it stays essentially immune to chloride stress corrosion cracking. Corrosion resistance runs close to Type 304 in many service environments, while thermal conductivity is higher. Buyers reach for 439 where oxidation resistance, formability, and weldability matter more than the broader acid resistance of austenitic grades. Stainless Steel 439 Coils are typically used in automotive exhaust systems and heat exchangers.
We maintain an extensive inventory of these stainless steel coils for immediate dispatch, sourcing from reputed primary mills and slitting to width in-house. Material ships in the annealed mill condition, in No.1, 2B, or BA finish, with mill or slit edges.
