Stainless Steel 1.4935 vs 410
Stainless Steel · grade comparison
Stainless Steel 1.4935 and 410 are both stainless steel grades. 1.4935 is the stronger of the two: yield strength 660 MPa (95.7 ksi) against 310 MPa (45 ksi) for 410, about 113% more; tensile strength follows at 865 MPa (125 ksi) vs 517 MPa (75 ksi). In exchange, 410 is the more ductile: elongation 25% versus 16% for 1.4935, and 1.4935 is harder (265 HB vs 155 HB). 1.4935 is stiffer (216 GPa vs 200 GPa). On the shop floor, 410 machines more easily (good vs poor) and 410 welds better (fair vs poor).
1.4935Choose it when strength drives the design.
410Choose it when the part is bent, formed or impact-loaded, or when the part is machined in volume.
1.4935 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.

1.4935 vs 410 — frequently asked
Is 1.4935 stronger than 410?
Yes. 1.4935 has a typical yield strength of 660 MPa (95.7 ksi) against 310 MPa (45 ksi) for 410 — about 113% more. Tensile strength is 865 MPa (125 ksi) vs 517 MPa (75 ksi).
Which is cheaper, 1.4935 or 410?
Both sit in the same relative cost tier ($$$, premium); the part price will be decided by machining time, tolerance and quantity rather than by the material.
Which is easier to machine, 1.4935 or 410?
410. Its machinability rates good (55/100) against poor (33/100) for 1.4935; for welding the order is 410 first (fair, 45/100) then 1.4935 (poor, 28/100).
