Moda 4589
Moda 4589 is a 14% chromium product with a small amount of niobium for elevated strength, making it suitable for structural parts exposed to loads that demand higher yield points.
Moda 4589 is a structural medium-chromium martensitic-ferritic stainless steel with enhanced wear resistance. Due to its chromium content and its molybdenum alloying, it can be used in many mildly corrosive environments. Because of its titanium content, Moda 4589 can be welded in all dimensions without becoming susceptible to intergranular corrosion.

Moda 410L/4003
Moda 410L/4003 is a weldable ferritic stainless steel with elevated yield strength and resistance to abrasion. Its better corrosion resistance compared to carbon steels enables lower maintenance costs and longer service life.
Outokumpu Moda 410L/4003 is a low-chromium structural ferritic stainless steel. Its corrosion resistance is limited in applications with increased corrosiveness. Moda 410L/4003 can, however, replace carbon steel in many structural applications. When some discoloration in more aggressive environments is not acceptable, Moda 410L/4003 may be painted.
Moda 410L/4003 is available in many product forms and dimensions, often also from stainless steel stockholders.

Moda 409/4512
Moda 409/4512 is a weldable ferritic stainless steel with good oxidation resistance in dry air. This product is also available as low-carbon Moda 409L. Its corrosion resistance is limited in applications with increased corrosiveness. Because of its titanium alloying, Moda 409/4512 can be welded in all dimensions without becoming susceptible to intergranular corrosion. It is possible to use Moda 409/4512 in high-temperature applications, for instance in automotive exhaust systems, where it is often used to replace aluminium-coated carbon steel.

For mildly Corrosive environments
Outokumpu Moda range
The Moda range contains ferritic stainless steel grades for mildly corrosive environments in PRE range < 17. The most widely used ferritic grade, Moda 430/4016 (EN 1.4016), is a classic 16% chromium unstabilized ferritic stainless steel. Typical applications are kitchen equipment, household appliances, sinks and elevators.
Moda 410L/4003 (EN 1.4003) is unstabilized 12% chromium ferritic stainless steel designed for structural applications, like bus frames, having good welding characteristics and good impact properties in subzero temperatures.
Moda range offers also stabilized ferritic products, like Moda 409/4512 (EN 1.4512), which is particularly suitable for some automotive applications. In addition, Moda range ferritic stainless steels can show formability comparable to that of deep drawing quality carbon steels. Regarding welding characteristics, low interstitial levels and added stabilizers have made enormous improvements to ferritic stainless steels. Further, distortion and buckling is much lower during welding when compared to that of austenitic or duplex stainless steels due to their lower thermal expansion and higher thermal conductivity.
Moda range grades can be used in a wide range of applications supported with a broad selection of surface finishes from mills and service centers.
