Principal Design Features
|
|
317 is a higher chromium, nickel and molybdenum version of 316 stainless designed principally for increased strength and corrosion resistance.
|
|
|
Applications
|
|
Textile, pulp paper and chemical equipment, for corrosion resistance.
|
|
|
Machinability
|
|
Low speeds and constant feeds will minimize this alloy's tendency to work harden. Tougher than 304 stainless with a long stringy chip, the use of chip breakers is recommended.
|
|
|
Welding
|
|
All common fusion and resistance methods except oxyacetylene welding have proven successful. Use AWS E/ER317 or 317L filler metal for best results.
|
|
|
Hot Working
|
|
All common hot working processes are possible with this alloy. Heat to 2100-2300 F (1149-1260 C). Avoid working this material below 1700 F (927 C). For optimum corrosion resistance, a post-work annealing is recommended.
|
|
|
Cold Working
|
|
Shearing, stamping, heading and drawing can be successfully performed . To remove internal stresses, a post-work annealing is recommended.
|
|
|
Annealing
|
|
1850-2050 F (1010-1121 C), followed by rapid cooling.
|
|
|
Hardening
|
|
This alloy does not respond to heat treatment. Cold work will cause an increase in both hardness and strength.
