| AISI-TYPE | CHARACTERISTICS | TYPICAL APPLICATIONS |
|---|---|---|
| AUSTENTIC | ||
| 304 | General purpose stainless steel specially for welded construction | For welded construction or wall vessels formed in a number of draws. |
| 321 environ- |
Stabilized 18/8 type with titanium; Not sensitive to intergranular corrosion within the carbide precipitation range of 420 to 870o C, corrosion resistance comparable to 304. |
Used in Oxidising corrosive ments, within 420 to 870o for welded construction. No annealing required after welding. |
| 316 | High creep strength, superior corrosion resisting properties in reducing atmosphere. | Used in industries in such medias as Sulphurous acid, Sulphuric acid, Phosphoric acid, formic acids & various organic acids for better corrosion resistance than 18/8 type. |
| 310 | Excellent high temperature properties with good ductility & weldability. | Used up to 1150 o C for continuous service & 1050 for intermittent service in oxidising atmosphere. |
| FERRITIC | ||
| 430 | Good Combination of corrosion resistance, useful mechanical properties & good formability. Not hardenable by heat treatment. | Utensils, hardwares, fasteners, appliances, furnace parts, Nitric acid processing equipments etc. |
| MARTENSETIC | ||
| 410 | General purpose corrosion & heat resisting steel; gives maximum corrosion resistance after heat treatment. Hardenable by heat treatment. | Cutlery, shafts, cracking tower, bubbler caps & trays for oil & gas industry, beater bars for paper & pulp industries etc. |
| * Austenitic stainless steels are not hardenable by heat treatment. These can be hardened by cold work only. | ||
