Our KARA range. A 17% chromium Ferritic Stainless Steel stabilised with titanium and niobium.

Main features

Good weldability; ease of forming; suitable for surface finishing (polishing, brushing, scotch bright); good resistance to corrosion (in boiler and gas environments), pitting corrosion, and high temperature oxidation (up to 950°C); enhanced hot mechanical properties (without risk of σ phase formation at intermediate temperatures); greater thermal conductivity and lower expansion coefficient than austenitic grades.

Applications

  • Catering kitchen cladding, trolleys, work surfaces
  • Extractor hoods, hobs, oven casings and linings
  • Sinks
  • Cooking utensils
