STAINLESS STEEL
AISI 202 | EN 1.4373
Description
Grade 202 stainless steel is a type of Cr-Ni-Mn stainless with similar properties to A240/SUS 302 stainless steel. The toughness of the grade at low temperatures is excellent. It is one of the most widely used precipitation hardening grades, and possesses good corrosion resistance, toughness, high harness, and strength.
It is cost effective when compared to stainless steel grade 304 as it has lower Nickel content, which makes it a preferred choice as an alternative to grades like 304 and 316 for general applications like daily use objects such as handles for mops, decorative applications, etc. when cost is a big factor to consider. It is reasonable to expect specifications in these standards to be similar but not necessarily identical to those given in this data sheet.
