SUS430 / SS430 Stainless Steel Plate Supplier & Stockist
E Steel Sdn. Bhd. is a leading supplier of SUS430 / SS430 (AISI 430, UNS S43000, DIN 1.4016) ferritic stainless steel plates in Malaysia, supplying customers across Selangor, Kuala Lumpur, Johor, Penang, and Singapore, and exporting to Indonesia, Brunei, and other ASEAN countries.
No minimum order (MOQ) required.
What Is SUS430 / SS430 Stainless Steel Plate?
SS430 is a general-purpose ferritic stainless steel containing around 16–18% chromium, with no nickel addition.
It offers good corrosion resistance in mild environments, good formability, and a bright, attractive finish — making it a popular, lower-cost alternative to the austenitic 300-series grades where extreme corrosion resistance isn't required.
It is not hardenable by heat treatment and is generally non-magnetic-adjacent (mildly magnetic, like other ferritic grades).
What Is the Difference Between SS430 & SS430F?
SS430F is the free-machining version of SS430.
Sulphur is added to the composition (typically around 0.15% min, versus 0.03% max in standard SS430) to form manganese sulphide inclusions that act as internal chip-breakers — this significantly improves machinability on CNC lathes and screw machines, making SS430F the preferred choice for turned parts such as fittings, valve components, and fasteners.
The trade-off is that the added sulphur reduces both corrosion resistance and weldability compared to standard SS430.
As a rule of thumb: choose SS430 for plate, sheet, and fabricated/welded parts where formability and finish matter; choose SS430F only where the part will be machined and welding isn't required.

Corrosion Resistance & Applications
SS430 offers good resistance to nitric acid, mild organic and inorganic acids, food, and atmospheric corrosion — though less than the austenitic 300-series grades and than higher-chromium ferritic grades. It's widely used for its bright, easily maintained finish and cost-effectiveness. Typical applications: kitchen equipment and sinks, appliance trim and housings, automotive trim, architectural and decorative panels, and general-purpose fabrication where mild corrosive exposure and good formability matter more than maximum corrosion resistance.
