Phehlukwayo Metal, a prominent manufacturer and supplier located in Cape Town, South Africa, specializes in high-quality Stainless Steel 430 Flat Bars that are built for outstanding performance and durability. These bars are crafted using cutting-edge technology, ensuring a superb surface finish, precise dimensions, and excellent corrosion resistance. Renowned for their remarkable formability and ability to withstand nitric and organic acids, Stainless Steel 430 Flat Bars find their place in a variety of industrial and architectural settings. Phehlukwayo Metal is dedicated to providing products that adhere to international standards, prioritizing customer satisfaction through meticulous engineering and dependable quality.
The Stainless Steel 430 Flat Bar is mainly made up of iron, chromium (16–18%), manganese, silicon, and a low carbon content. Its ferritic structure grants it impressive corrosion resistance, especially in mildly corrosive environments. This alloy boasts solid mechanical properties, with a tensile strength of about 450 MPa, a yield strength of 205 MPa, and notable hardness. While it offers moderate ductility, it remains magnetic in all conditions. The inclusion of chromium not only boosts oxidation resistance but also enhances its polishability and heat resistance, making it perfect for both decorative and functional uses.

Stainless Steel 430 Flat Bar offers moderate resistance to corrosion, but it is less resistant compared to other grades like 304. It is prone to rusting in harsh environments, especially where exposure to chlorides or acids is frequent.
The typical thickness of a Stainless Steel 430 Flat Bar ranges from 3mm to 50mm, though custom sizes can be produced. Thickness often depends on the intended application, with thinner bars used for decorative purposes and thicker ones for structural support.
Stainless Steel 430 Flat Bar is commonly used in industries such as automotive, construction, kitchen appliances, and manufacturing. It is particularly favored for applications requiring moderate corrosion resistance, like exhaust systems, appliances, and decorative trim in architectural projects.
Across various industries, the Stainless Steel 430 Flat Bar is favored for its blend of strength, corrosion resistance, and cost-effectiveness. It’s an excellent choice for automotive trim, kitchen appliances, food processing equipment, and architectural paneling. In industrial settings, you’ll find it used in furnace components, heat exchangers, and flue liners due to its resistance to oxidation. Plus, its visual appeal and ease of fabrication make it a go-to for interior design, construction, and household hardware applications, ensuring long-lasting performance with minimal upkeep.
We provide products that come with both mill test certificates and third-party test certificates, ensuring the highest standards of quality and compliance.
