Advantages of 317L Stainless Steel

There are many reasons why you should consider 317L SS for your applications:

• 317L is able to resist corrosion to very high levels which includes pitting and crevice. This is due to its content makeup.
• Unique mechanical qualities. It comes with very strong tensile capacity. This makes it very strong.
• 317L alloy is used for different productions or metal fabrication methods.
• It comes with the finest formability features.
• This alloy has very good weldability features.
• 317L SS is non-magnetic.
• Due to its low carbon, it is protected from sensitization that comes from welding.
• They are very easy to handle and use.
• High durability levels are assured with this SS.
• Very easy to maintain and to clean as well.
• Resistant to oxidation.
• Has low weight.

Chemical Properties

With 20% chromium, 11 – 15% nickel, 3 – 4% molybdenum, including iron (balanced level), and more, the chemical composition of 317L is indeed a strong one.

Other elements found in 317L include manganese 2%, 0.03% sulfur and carbon mixture, 1% silicon, and 0.045% phosphorus.

Due to the above details, they come with these chemical features:

• Rusting and corrosion. Since it has high quantities of molybdenum, it doesn’t corrode or rust easily.
• Resistant to various acidic environments. To many chemicals, 317L alloy is resistant. These include acidic chlorine, sulfuric acid, and phosphorus acid.
• Pitting and crevice corrosion. 317L alloy even with pitting and crevice doesn’t corrode at all.
• It also comes with the very best welding features. However, oxyacetylene welding method needs to be prevented.

Physical Properties

• 317L is not magnetic.
• It has a very elegant and smooth look.
• Heat resistance. 317L alloy doesn’t respond to heat treating.
• Performing conventional hot working methods is possible. However, the right measurements should be followed. 317L shouldn’t be heated below 1700° To ensure corrosion is resisted, annealing is advised.
• Heat treatment does not harden this SS
• Cold working is possible

Mechanical Properties

371L SS comes with 595 MPa tensile strength, 260 mpa yield strength, with 200 GPa modulus of elasticity. Other properties include 55% elongation and 217 Brinell hardness.

Due to the mechanical properties of this stainless steel, it is able to hold pressure on a high level.

What is 317L Stainless Steel Designation Equivalent?

When it comes to choosing stainless steel grade 317L, at times you may encounter these name variations:

• AISI 317L
• ASTM A167
• ASTM A182
• ASTM A213

What Are The Different Forms of 317L Stainless Steel?

After stainless steel manufacturing process, there are usually sold in different forms. Even the 317L grade stainless steel is not exempted from this classification. The most common available forms include:

• Plates
• Tubes
• Sheet
• Pipe
• Tube
• Bar
• Rolls
