Ferritic stainless steel is a type of chromium alloy that has a ferritic structure at elevated and room temperature with body-centered cubic crystal structures. It has a chemical composition consisting of C≤0.02% and Cr 10.5%~32% and cannot be hardened by heat treatment. Ferritic stainless steel is used in comprehensive applications with excellent general properties and is taken as a kind of primary nickel-saving stainless steel.

The ferritic stainless steel metallurgy has several advantages including its low-cost option for corrosion-resistant stainless steel, being appropriate for several automotive applications including Exhaust System Flanges and Hot Exhaust Gas Oxygen (HEGO) Sensor Bosses, its Antilock Brake System Sensor Rings as well as its Rearview Mirror Mounts. Magnetic applications for stainless steel include magnetic probes, sensors, armatures, and pole pieces requiring corrosion resistance without plating.

The following tables contain a list of the stainless steel, and other materials, that are available. For more complete coverage of properties, reference MPIF Standard 35, ASTM B783, ISO 5755, DIN 30910-4, and JIS Z2550, and download the technical information bulletins of interest. Standard powder metal materials are defined in North America by MPIF Standard 35 and ASTM B783, essentially equivalent standards. German PM steels are listed in DIN 30910-4, or more recently, ISO 5755. Japan steels are listed in JIS Z2550, with grade names changing with the revision from 1989 to 2000.
