At ASC LLP, we take pride in offering a wide range of high-quality stainless steel products, including our 347 stainless steel plates. These plates are renowned for their exceptional properties and versatility, making them a preferred choice for various industrial applications. In this comprehensive guide, we will explore everything you need to know about stainless steel 347 plates, including their properties, advantages, and applications.
What is 347 Stainless Steel Plates?
SS 347 plates are made from austenitic stainless steel that contains columbium (niobium) as a stabilizing element. This addition helps to enhance the material’s resistance to intergranular corrosion, which is a common issue in stainless steels exposed to high temperatures. The composition of 347 stainless steel typically includes 18-20% chromium, 9-13% nickel, and small amounts of carbon, manganese, phosphorus, sulfur, silicon, and columbium.
Properties of 347 Stainless Steel Plates
The unique chemical composition of 347 plates SS imparts a range of beneficial properties, making them suitable for demanding environments. Here are some key properties of 347 stainless steel plates:
- High Temperature Resistance: One of the most significant advantages of 347 stainless steel plates is their excellent resistance to high temperatures. They maintain their mechanical properties and corrosion resistance even at temperatures up to 1500°F (816°C).
- Corrosion Resistance: The addition of columbium provides superior resistance to intergranular corrosion, making 347 stainless steel plates ideal for applications involving exposure to corrosive environments.
- Oxidation Resistance: 347 stainless steel plates offer excellent oxidation resistance, which is crucial in high-temperature applications where oxidation can degrade the material over time.
- Mechanical Strength: These plates exhibit high tensile and yield strength, ensuring durability and reliability in various applications.
- Formability and Weldability: 347 stainless steel plates are easy to form and weld, making them suitable for a wide range of fabrication processes.
