Type 410 is martensitic stainless steel known for its hardenability. It is ideal for applications involving high stress, as it offers a combination of corrosion resistance, strength, and ductility. Common uses for Type 410 include steam/gas turbine blades and buckets, bushings, valve components, fasteners, nuclear reactor control rod mechanisms, petrochemical equipment, and machine parts. Alloy 410 demonstrates good resistance to oxidation and corrosion, making it suitable for various environments, including atmospheric conditions, potable water, and mild food acids.
