Stainless Steel 410Cb Annealed vs 410Cb-CD
Stainless Steel · 410Cb temper comparison
410Cb Annealed and 410Cb-CD are two conditions of the same stainless steel grade, 410Cb: Annealed versus CD (cold drawn). The chemistry is identical, so every difference below comes from the condition. 410Cb-CD is the stronger of the two: yield strength 500 MPa (72.5 ksi) against 290 MPa (42.1 ksi) for 410Cb Annealed, about 72% more; tensile strength follows at 640 MPa (92.8 ksi) vs 490 MPa (71.1 ksi). In exchange, 410Cb Annealed is the more ductile: elongation 25% versus 15% for 410Cb-CD, and 410Cb-CD is harder (200 HB vs 170 HB).

410Cb-CDChoose it when strength drives the design.
410Cb Annealed vs 410Cb-CD: 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.
