WorkabilityCold and hot workability are approximately equal to those of Type 304, 316, and other standard austenitic stainless steels.
WeldabilityTIG welding, MIG welding, and shielded metal arc welding apply in the same manner as with standard austenitic stainless steels.It is recommended to use ER320 or ER320LR welding electrodes..However, reduce welding heat input as far as possible for Nb-added stainless steel.
MachinabilityMachinability is similar to that of standard austenitic stainless steels. A machinist should use a high-speed steel tool or an ultrahard tool. Additionally, it is recommended to adopt a slower feed rate and a deeper cutting depth
Heat TreatmentStabilizing heat treatment should be performed at a temperature range from 925°C to 1010°C, followed by quenching in water or rapid cooling by other means. (Conditions provided in ASTM A480/A480M).
PicklingPickling is performed under the same conditions as with Type 304, using a mixture of nitric acid and hydrofluoric acid.
ApplicationsChemical plants, heat exchangers, sulfuric acid-related equipment.
