| Attribute | Details |
|---|---|
| Characteristics | Austenitic, non-magnetic (annealed condition), superior corrosion resistance, excellent toughness, hygienic, smooth bright finish. |
| Surface Treatment | Bright annealed (BA), cold rolled, annealed in a controlled atmosphere (hydrogen or vacuum), resulting in a highly reflective, smooth finish. |
| Dimensions and Specifications | OD 1/8" to 5" (3.17mm to 127mm); Wall Thickness: 0.035" to 0.120" (0.89mm to 3.05mm); Length: Up to 20 meters (seamless or welded). |
| Corrosion Resistance | Superior resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion, and chloride stress corrosion cracking (SCC); excellent in marine, chemical, and acidic environments; resists potable water with up to 1000 mg/L chlorides at ambient temperatures, reducing to 500 mg/L at 60¡ãC. |
| Mechanical Properties | Tensile Strength: 75,000-85,000 PSI (515-585 MPa); Yield Strength: 30,000-40,000 PSI (205-275 MPa); Hardness: 75-90 HRB; Elongation: 40-60%. |
| Processability | Excellent weldability (with or without filler metals, e.g., 316L filler); good machinability (sharp tools recommended, rated at 36% of B1112); highly formable via deep drawing, bending, or stamping; may require intermediate annealing for severe cold working. |
| Applications | Chemical processing (piping, equipment), pharmaceuticals (sterile tubing), food and beverage (processing equipment), marine (boat fittings), instrumentation (hydraulic/pneumatic systems), medical devices, architectural (coastal decorative trim). |
| Standards | ASTM A269, ASTM A213, ASTM A249, ASME SA213, EN 10216-5, NACE MR0175, ISO 3506 (for fasteners), GB, DIN. |
