305 stainless steel requires less power to form the as compared to 301 stainless steel or 304 stainless steel, due to its lower strength and work hardening rate. After cold work it remains non-magnetic. By the common fusion method and resistance techniques the austenitic stainless steel considered to be weldable. Stainless steel 305 grade can be machined through heavy feeds and slow speeds.
APPLICATIONS
Deep drawn parts, cups, pans, pens, eyelets, rivets, tubes, mixing bowls
DESCRIPTION
305 Stainless Steel is an austenitic chromium nickel stainless steel with a low rate of work hardening. This low rate of work hardening makes it suitable for many deep drawing applications. In order to minimize earring during drawing, the directionality introduced during cold rolling must be kept to a minimum amount. Deep drawing quality should be noted when ordering this alloy. Ordering annealed or dead soft does not guarantee deep drawing quality. Type 305 is non magnetic and becomes magnetic ( at a slow rate) with increasing cold work.
