321 Sheet Stainless Steel

It is used principally for applications involving welding or sustained elevated temperature operations.

321 sheet stainless steel.

Type 321 is a good choice for applications where heat is an issue. 321 can be used in applications up to 900 degrees celsius where 304 is normally used up to 500 degrees celsius. Ss 321 is offered in sheet strip plate foil shim in numerous thicknesses. 321 stainless steel plates are part of the austenitic family of stainless steel.

Stainless steel type 321is a stabilized austenitic stainless steel similar to type 304 but with a titanium addition of at least five times the carbon content. It is furnished with a crimping tool. The titanium content of 321 stainless steel preserves corrosion resistance around weld points. 321 stainless steel sheet 321 is non heat treatable and non magnetic in the annealed condition.

Astm a240 type 321 is an excellent choice for applications where temperature is a problem. 321 is basically a 304 grade containing a stabilizer of titanium. Type 321 is stabilized against chromium carbide formation by the addition of titanium. This alloy contains chromium nickel and titanium.

321 stainless steel coil and sheet is part of the austenitic family of stainless steel. 321 stainless is reinforced with titanium this alloy excels in high temperature environments providing resistance to cracking and corrosion. 321 is basically a 304 grade containing a stabilizer of titanium. Type 321 is a good choice for applications where heat is an issue.

Type 321 is a stabilized stainless steel which offers as its main advantage an excellent resistance to intergranular corrosion following exposure to temperatures in the chromium carbide precipitation range from 800 to 1500 f 427 to 816 c. This titanium addition reduces or prevents carbide precipitation during welding and in 800 1500 f 427 816 c service. 321 stainless steel sheet is a chromium nickel stainless steel and also with the enhancement of titanium 321 stainless steel plate is resistant to intergranular deterioration. Foil is often used as a heat treating wrap in temperatures up to 2600 f.

Ideal uses for 321 stainless steel include expansion joints aircraft parts furnace parts heat exchangers mineral processing screens welding by all standard methods with or without filler metal. This material maintains its corrosion resistance in temperatures up to 1500 f.
