Attribute | Details |
---|---|
Characteristics | Austenitic, low-carbon, non-magnetic, superior corrosion resistance, high strength, excellent toughness, hygienic properties. |
Surface Treatment | Annealed and pickled (AP), providing a clean, smooth finish with enhanced corrosion resistance; optional bright annealing (BA) or electropolishing (EP) for specific applications. |
Dimensions and Specifications | OD 6-630mm; Wall Thickness: 0.5-30mm; Length: Up to 30 meters (seamless or welded); Schedules: 5S, 10S, 40S, 80S. |
Corrosion Resistance | Superior resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion, and chloride stress corrosion cracking (SCC); excellent in marine, chemical, and acidic environments; resists intergranular corrosion post-welding due to low carbon content (max 0.03%). |
Mechanical Properties | Tensile Strength: 70,000-85,000 PSI (485-585 MPa); Yield Strength: 25,000-40,000 PSI (170-275 MPa); Hardness: 75-90 HRB; Elongation: 40-60%. |
Processability | Excellent weldability (no post-weld annealing required due to low carbon), good machinability (use sharp tools to avoid work hardening), formable via cold working, annealing at 1900-2100¡ãF (1038-1149¡ãC) with rapid cooling for optimal corrosion resistance. |
Applications | Chemical processing (tanks, piping), marine applications (boat fittings, pipelines), food processing (equipment, storage), pharmaceuticals (equipment, tubing), heat exchangers, wastewater treatment, architectural (coastal balustrading). |
Standards | ASTM A312, ASTM A213, ASME SA312, EN 10216-5, NACE MR0175, ISO 3506 (for fasteners), GB, DIN. |
