1.4301

INT

1.4301 round austenitic stainless steels, which have a very suitable combination in terms of forming, mechanical properties and corrosion resistance, constitute approximately 70-80% of stainless steel production in terms of usage area and alloy variety. These alloys feature high toughness and high strength values ​​in a wide temperature range and show good resistance to oxidation at temperatures up to 540 ° C. Austenitic chrome-nickel stainless steels are generally used in humid environments. The most common austenitic stainless steel type is 300 series alloys such as 304 and 316 types. 1.4301 austenitic stainless steels have a wide range of applications due to their superior properties. aircraft industry, panels, fuel pipes, wires, tanks in the chemical industry, pipes: condensers, milk tanks, transport tanks, fermentation vessels in the food industry mixers, bottling machines, boiling pots, pharmacy, chemistry and petrochemical, computer keys springs and architecture

Weldability

Fusion welding performance for 304 round stainless steel is excellent, both filled and unfilled. Recommended filler bars and electrodes for 304 round stainless steel are 308 stainless steel. Recommended filler for 304L is 308L. Heavily welded sections may require post-weld annealing. This step is not required for 304L. If post-weld heat treatment is not possible, 321 grade stainless steel can be used.

Special Properties

It is resistant to high temperature oxidation up to about 800 C and has very good mechanical and friction resistance. Continuous use is not recommended at 400-800C. Welding can be done, but the internal structure may be damaged. It can be bent and expanded. It is used in chemistry, petrochemistry and boilers, pipes and heat exchangers. It is used in household appliances, industrial kitchens and automotive industry.
