ASTM A240 AISI317L SUS317L Cold Rolled Stainless Steel Sheets Deliver Superior Corrosion Resistance and Strength for Demanding Industries

Product Overview

The 317L stainless steel sheet and plate, produced according to ASTM A240/A240M standards, offer a superior blend of durability, weldability, and formability. With a molybdenum content between 3.0–4.0%, this alloy provides remarkable resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion — particularly in chloride and acidic environments. Its low carbon composition (<0.030%) enhances weldability and minimizes the risk of carbide precipitation during welding.

These sheets are available in a wide range of thicknesses (0.1mm–300mm), widths (3mm–2000mm), and lengths customizable to client requirements. Both hot rolled and cold rolled processing options are available, ensuring flexibility for diverse industrial applications.

Key Features and Advantages

• Outstanding Corrosion Resistance: Enhanced molybdenum content ensures superior resistance to chemical and chloride-induced corrosion.

• High Strength and Durability: Excellent tensile (515–690 MPa) and yield (205 MPa) strength deliver long-term reliability.

• Excellent Weldability: Low carbon minimizes intergranular corrosion risks.

• Heat and Chemical Resistance: Maintains performance in environments exposed to high temperatures and sulfuric acid.

• Ease of Fabrication: Readily machined, welded, and formed using standard industrial techniques.

• Sustainability: Fully recyclable and compliant with global environmental standards.

Applications Across Industries

Owing to its mechanical resilience and superior corrosion resistance, 317L stainless steel finds widespread use in:

• Chemical & Petrochemical Processing Equipment

• Marine & Offshore Structures

• Pharmaceutical & Food Processing Plants

• Heat Exchangers & Evaporators

• Oil & Gas Pipelines and Components

• Automotive and Aerospace Engineering

Fabrication and Processing

• Welding: Compatible with TIG, MIG, and resistance welding. Filler metals of 317L or 316L are recommended.

• Machining: Carbide-tipped tools and moderate speeds ensure efficiency and surface quality.

• Forming: Can be easily bent or drawn, though its high strength may require heavier equipment.

• Annealing: Heat to 1010–1120°C followed by rapid cooling to restore flexibility.

• Surface Treatment: Pickling and passivation are used post-fabrication to enhance corrosion resistance.

Quality Assurance and Packaging

Each sheet is accompanied by a Mill Test Certificate (MTC) and complies with international standards including ASTM A240/A240M, ASME SA240/SA312, ISO 15510, and EN 10088-2. Sheets are securely packed in waterproof paper and steel-strapped bundles, suitable for sea, air, or land transport.
