ASTM A493 rounds surface finish, delivery condition and advantages
The surface finish options are cold drawn and A493 grade 410 polished bar, centerless ground and polished, turned and polished, smooth turned and polished and rough turned. The delivery conditions are cold drawn, annealed, cold finished and heat treated. The advantages include:
- High Corrosion Resistance- due to their high content of chromium and nickel.
- High Strength- they are made of ss and hence are durable.
- Excellent Machinability- due to their high ductility and low work hardening rate.
- Good Weldability- can be easily welded using common welding techniques like TIG and MIG welding.
- Wide Range of Sizes and Shapes- to meet various application requirements.
