430 BA Stainless Steel Sheet and Coil

430 BA gets its bright, reflective surface from controlled-atmosphere annealing. The smooth, mirror-like finish looks good and cleans easily, which suits appliance housings and other uses with high appearance standards. As a ferritic steel it is magnetic, and an economical alternative to 300 series grades.

Why 430 BA

Bright, magnetic, economical.

Magnetic, unlike 300 series: suits magnetic separators and electromagnetic devices.
16–18% chromium forms a protective oxide layer for reliable corrosion resistance indoors.
Keeps its strength and oxidation resistance up to 816 °C (1500 °F) for medium-temperature uses.
A cost-effective alternative to 300 series. For harsher environments without the need for magnetism, choose 304 BA.
