Ferritic stainless steels have a "body-centred-cubic" (bcc) crystal structure, which is the same as pure iron at room temperature.
This article gives the 0.2% and 1.0% proof strength, tensile strength and elongation of the 26 ferritic grades specified. The standard also specifies the resistance to intergranular corrosion acceptance criteria.
BS EN 10088-3 gives the mechanical properties for stainless steel semi-finished products, bars, rods and sections for general purposes. This article covers ferritic stainless steels. The properties given are proof strength, tensile strength, elongation and hardness.
Gives compositions of standard ferritic stainless steel grades.
