Quenched and Tempered 410Cb Stainless Steel
Quenched and tempered AISI 410Cb is AISI 410Cb stainless steel in the quenched and tempered condition. The graph bars on the material properties cards below compare quenched and tempered AISI 410Cb to: wrought martensitic stainless steels (top), all iron alloys (middle), and the entire database (bottom). A full bar means this is the highest value in the relevant set. A half-full bar means it's 50% of the highest, and so on.
