Food Safe 430 Stainless Steel Sheet Cold Rolled 0.4mm - 2.0mm for Kitchen Appliances

This 430 stainless steel sheet is specifically manufactured for the home appliance industry, providing the ideal material solution for kitchen equipment, white goods, and household appliance manufacturing. As a ferritic stainless steel with 16-18% chromium, grade 430 offers an excellent balance of corrosion resistance, formability, and cost-effectiveness — making it the preferred choice for major appliance OEMs worldwide.

• Cost-Effective: Nickel-free composition (unlike 304) significantly reduces material cost while maintaining adequate performance for indoor appliance applications
• Good Corrosion Resistance: Sufficient protection against mild acids, food acids, detergents, and atmospheric corrosion in indoor environments
• Excellent Formability: Suitable for stamping, bending, and roll-forming of complex appliance body panels and internal components
• Magnetic: Ferritic structure allows magnetic attachment of notes, timers, and accessories on refrigerator doors
• Thermal Properties: Higher thermal conductivity and lower thermal expansion than austenitic grades — beneficial for oven and cooking applications
• Surface Quality: Available in 2B and BA finishes that meet stringent appliance industry appearance standards

• Refrigerators: Door panels, body shells, inner liners, shelf supports, freezer compartments
• Dishwashers: Inner tubs, outer panels, spray arms, filter housings
• Ovens & Ranges: Outer wrappers, control panels, oven cavity liners (where temperature ≤ 700°C)
• Microwave Ovens: Cavity bodies, outer cabinets, waveguide covers
• Range Hoods: Body panels, filter frames, chimney covers
• Washing Machines: Outer drums, body panels, detergent dispensers
• Water Heaters: Outer jackets, inner tanks (non-pressure applications)

• Compliant with FDA 21 CFR for food contact surfaces
• Meets EU 1935/2004 framework regulation for food contact materials
• ROHS and REACH compliant
• Surface roughness Ra ≤ 0.5 μm on 2B finish for easy cleaning and hygiene

Each shipment includes Mill Test Certificate (MTC EN 10204 3.1) and surface quality certification. We conduct 100% visual inspection for cosmetic defects (pits, scratches, coil breaks) critical to appliance-grade materials.

Appliance-grade sheets are packed with PVC/PE protective film, interleaved with paper, and secured on wooden pallets. Special humidity-controlled packaging available for moisture-sensitive destinations.
