Typical % Composition
Summary |
"Cr 18, Ni 8.0 - 12.0,
C .03max " |
|
Applications |
"Food and beverage, chemical,
cryogenic, medical, petroleum, environmental,
etc.." |
|
Corrosion Resistance |
"Austenitic Cr - Ni stainless.
Better corrosion resistance than 302.
Essentially non-magnetic, becomes slightly
magnetic when cold worked. Lower carbon
content means less carbide precipitation
in the heat-effected zone during welding
and a lower susceptibility to intergranular
corrosion." |
