Understanding Cold Rolled 430 Stainless Steel Finishes

Cold rolling followed by annealing and final surface treatment gives 430 stainless steel its excellent formability, uniform thickness, and tailored surface properties. The finish you choose directly affects appearance, cleanability, fingerprint resistance, light reflection, and cost. Gangsteel offers the four most popular finish options for 430 cold rolled stainless steel: 2B, BA, NO.4, and HL (Hairline). Each is produced in-house at Yongjin Mill under strict quality control for consistent results.

Detailed Comparison of 430 Cold Rolled Stainless Steel Finish Options

All finishes maintain identical corrosion resistance, mechanical properties, and formability because they share the same base 430 alloy.

For European or DIN-standard projects, please see our EN10088 2 X6Cr17 stainless steel sheet and DIN 1.4016 stainless steel sheet.

Chemical Composition (Same for All Finishes)

Mechanical Properties (Annealed Condition – Same for All Finishes)

For Chinese-standard projects, the identical material is also available under GB/T 10Cr17 1Cr17 stainless steel sheet.

Manufacturing Process at Gangsteel & Yongjin Mill

As a direct partner of Yongjin Stainless Steel (Yongjin Mill), we start with high-purity AOD-refined material. After precision cold rolling:

• 2B: Annealing + pickling + light skin-pass
• BA: Bright annealing in protective atmosphere (no pickling)
• NO.4: Annealing + pickling + multi-stage 150–320 grit brushing
• HL: Annealing + pickling + long-hairline brushing

Every coil undergoes gloss, roughness, and visual inspection to guarantee uniform finish options.

For Japanese-standard requirements, please see our JIS G4305 SUS 430 stainless steel sheet.
