400 / 2.4360

Alloy 400has outstanding resistance to neutral and alkaline salt solutions. This alloy is one of the few metallic materials which can be used in contact with fluorine, hydrofluoric acid, hydrogen fluoride or their derivatives. It has been a standard material for salt plants for many years. 2.4360 has good mechanical properties from sub-zero temperatures up to about 550 °C and is free from chloride induced stress-corrosion cracking.
