Difference between milled steel and stainless steel?
Milled steel is a cheap form of iron-carbon alloy that is subject to corrosion but is malleable and does not suffer from the brittleness issues of Stainless steel. Stainless steel contains additional compounds that reduces atmospheric and hydro-corrosion and increases the hardness of the steel. This makes it more expensive, less malleable and is more likely to suffer from stress fatigue and stress fractures
Diffence between ferritic stainless steel and martensitic stainless steel?
Ferritic stainless steel are magnetic, containing no nickel and not hardened by heat treatment. For example 409 and 430 stainless steel Martensitic stainless steel are also magnetic and containing no nickel but hardened by heat treatment. For example 410 and 420 stainless steel
