Stainless Steel 321 / AMS 5510 / AMS 5645 / SAE 30321 /Alloy 321 Steel, Corrosion and Heat Resistant

 

Applications of Alloy Steel AISI 321 / AISI 321H / UNS S32100 / UNS S32109 :

Alloy 321 (UNS S32100) is titanium stabilized austenitic stainless steel with good general corrosion resistance. It has excellent resistance to intergranular corrosion after exposure to temperatures in the chromium carbide precipitation range of 800 - 1500°F (427 - 816°C). The alloy resists oxidation to 1500°F (816°C) and has higher creep and stress rupture properties than alloys 304 and 304L. It also possesses good low temperature toughness.

Alloy 321H (UNS S 32109) stainless steel is the higher carbon (0.04 - 0.10) version of the alloy. It was developed for enhanced creep resistance and for higher strength at temperatures above 1000oF (537°C). In most instances, the carbon content of the plate enables dual certification.

Alloy 321 Stainless Steel cannot be hardened by heat treatment, only by cold working. It can be easily welded and processed by standard shop fabrication practices.

Stainless Steel Alloys 321 and 321H Pipe, Flanges and Fittings are common to the petroleum refining industries. Alloy 321 and 321H is often used to make radiant super heaters, boiler tubes, high pressure steam pipes, and general refinery piping. They are also used for heavy-duty exhaust systems and manifolds.

 

Properties of Alloy Steel AISI 321 / AISI 321H / UNS S32100 / UNS S32109 :

Alloy 321 is austenitic stainless steel that contains stabilizing elements. It is easily welded. Annealing is often not required after welding unless stress relief is desired. It has excellent resistance to oxidation and corrosion.  The addition of titanium in 321 Stainless Steel give some desired characteristics:

  • Prevents harmful carbide precipitation in the heat affected zone (HAZ) of the weld area
  • Imparts partial immunity to inter granular corrosion
  • Reduced embrittlement in the HAZ of the weld area

321H stainless steel is a widely used stainless steel, where parts are heated within carbide-precipitation temperature range (800°F-1500°F) and exposed to corrosive atmosphere.  321 Stainless Steel is similar to 304 Stainless Steel, but with higher nickel content and stabilized with titanium. Titanium preferentially reacts with carbon in the steel and prevents precipitation of chromium carbides at the grain boundaries, thus preserving corrosion-resistant properties by preventing depletion of chromium near the grain boundaries during exposure within critical temperature range. This grade responds well to hardening by cold working. It has good welding characteristics; and post-weld annealing is not normally required to restore its excellent performance in a wide range of corrosive conditions.

  • Responds well to hardening by cold working
  • Good welding characteristics
  • Excellent corrosion resistance in a wide variety of corrosive media
  • High creep & stress rupture properties
