  2. SAE 316L stainless steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAE_316L_stainless_steel

    SAE 316L grade stainless steel, sometimes referred to as A4 stainless steel or marine grade stainless steel, is the second most common austenitic stainless steel after 304/A2 stainless steel. Its primary alloying constituents after iron , are chromium (between 16–18%), nickel (10–12%) and molybdenum (2–3%), up to 2% manganese , [ 1 ] with ...

  3. Austenitic stainless steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Austenitic_stainless_steel

    300 series stainless steels are the larger subgroup. The most common austenitic stainless steel and most common of all stainless steel is Type 304, also known as 18/8 or A2. Type 304 is extensively used in such items as cookware, cutlery, and kitchen equipment. Type 316, also known as A4, is the next most common austenitic stainless steel. Some ...

    The next set of 3 digits gives the steel's minimum yield strength. So S355 has a minimum yield strength of 355 MPa for the smallest thickness range covered by the relevant standard – i.e. EN10025. [2] Below is a table indicating the most common application codes.

    316 alloy crystal microstructure. While 316 is not completely rust-proof, the alloy is more corrosion resistant than other common stainless steels. For example, surgical steel is made from subtypes of 316 stainless steel. In addition to molybdenum, 316 also contains a number of other elements in varying concentrations (see table below).

    The average carbon footprint of stainless steel (all grades, all countries) is estimated to be 2.90 kg of CO 2 per kg of stainless steel produced, [97] of which 1.92 kg are emissions from raw materials (Cr, Ni, Mo); 0.54 kg from electricity and steam, and 0.44 kg are direct emissions (i.e., by the stainless steel plant). Note that stainless ...

  7. Surgical stainless steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surgical_stainless_steel

    SAE 316 and SAE 316L stainless steel, also referred to as marine grade stainless, is a chromium, nickel, molybdenum alloy of steel that exhibits relatively good strength and corrosion resistance. 316L is the low carbon version of 316 stainless steel. [2] 316L in particular is biocompatible when produced to ASTM F138 / F139. [3]

  8. Unified numbering system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unified_numbering_system

    Many material or standard specifications include a number of different UNS numbers that may be used within that specification. For example: UNS S30400 (SAE 304, Cr/Ni 18/10, Euronorm 1.4301 stainless steel) could be used to make stainless steel bars ( ASTM A276 ) or stainless steel plates for pressure vessels ( ASTM A240 ) or pipes ( ASTM A312 ).

  9. Alloy 20 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alloy_20

    Alloy 20 is an austenitic stainless steel containing less than 50% iron developed for applications involving sulfuric acid. Its corrosion resistance also finds other uses in the chemical , petrochemical , power generation , and plastics industries.
