STAINLESS STEEL USAGE AREAS
AISI TP | FEATURE | USAGE AREAS |
304 | The most common type of stainless steel. Provides high oxidation resistance up to 450 ° C. | It is used in food, kitchen, kitchenware, household goods, automotive and medical industry, kitchen sink production. |
304L | Low carbon version of AISI 304. | Suitable for storage tanks and boilers. Usually used at temperatures below 400 ° C. |
316 | Cause of molybdenum it contains, its strength is very high. Provides high oxidation resistance up to 650 ° C. | Used in chemical, petro-chemical and food industries. Used in steam boilers, kitchens and facade coatings. |
316L | Low carbon version of AISI 316. Provides high oxidation resistance up to 450 ° C. | It is used in chemical, petro-chemical, food industry, marine and industrial atmospheric conditions. |
316TI | Cause of titanium it contains, no corrosion sensitivity occurs. Can be used continuously at high temperatures up to 650 ° C. | Used in chemical, petro-chemical, coal, cellulose, textile, resin and rubber industries. |
309/309S | Oxidation resistance is high at temperatures up to 1050 ° C. Resistant to sulfur and nitrogen gases. Good tensile strength and creep properties. | Used in furnace construction, heaters, cementation boxes and materials to be used at high temperatures. |
310/310S | Although similar to AISI 304, it is a high temperature material. It is used up to 1200 ° C. Especially it has high welding ability and corrosion resistance. | Used in furnace construction, steam boilers, oil plants and pipelines. |
321 | Cause of titanium it contains, no corrosion sensitivity occurs. Can be used continuously at high temperatures up to 1000 ° C. Welding capability is very good for methods other than gas melting. | It is used in food, drink and photography industries. It is also used in chemical industry. |
430 | Basic ferritic stainless steel grade. Corrosion resistance is sufficient. | Used in automotive industry, kitchen appliances and decorative applications. |
430TI | Cause of titanium it contains, no corrosion sensitivity occurs. Thermal conductivity is good. High temperature resistance is good. Welding ability is medium. | It can be used in hot water systems, exhaust pipes and washing machines. |
