Stainless Steel 1.4035 vs 410
Stainless Steel · grade comparison
Stainless Steel 1.4035 and 410 are both stainless steel grades. 1.4035 is the stronger of the two: yield strength 400 MPa (58 ksi) against 310 MPa (45 ksi) for 410, about 29% more; tensile strength follows at 700 MPa (102 ksi) vs 517 MPa (75 ksi). In exchange, 410 is the more ductile: elongation 25% versus 14% for 1.4035, and 1.4035 is harder (215 HB vs 155 HB). 1.4035 is stiffer (215 GPa vs 200 GPa) and 410 runs hotter in service (650°C vs 400°C continuous). On the shop floor, 1.4035 machines more easily (very good vs good), 410 welds better (fair vs not recommended), and 1.4035 sits in a lower cost tier (standard, $$) than 410 (premium, $$$).
1.4035Choose it when strength drives the design, or when the part is machined in volume.
410Choose it when the part is bent, formed or impact-loaded, or when the part sees heat.
1.4035 vs 410: propertiesHow to read these bars
- One bar per material. A full bar is the highest value among all stainless steel grades in the FabDigit library; each bar is drawn as a share of that.
- The better value (by the usual engineering direction) is in bold. Rows with no direction — density, thermal conductivity — have no bold.
- Values are typical room-temperature figures for the condition named on each card.
- Confirm against the certified mill or resin datasheet before design release.

1.4035 vs 410 — frequently asked
Is 1.4035 stronger than 410?
Yes. 1.4035 has a typical yield strength of 400 MPa (58 ksi) against 310 MPa (45 ksi) for 410 — about 29% more. Tensile strength is 700 MPa (102 ksi) vs 517 MPa (75 ksi).
Which is cheaper, 1.4035 or 410?
1.4035 is the lower-cost material: it sits in the standard tier ($$) while 410 is premium ($$$). Part price depends far more on geometry, tolerance and quantity than on raw stock — upload a CAD file for a live quote.
Which is easier to machine, 1.4035 or 410?
1.4035. Its machinability rates very good (70/100) against good (55/100) for 410; for welding the order is 410 first (fair, 45/100) then 1.4035 (not recommended, 12/100).
