SS 317L Sheets and Plates

What are Stainless Steel 317L Sheets and Plates?

The 317L sheet is a type of austenitic stainless steel that has a low carbon content and a lot of other metals in it. It is made to be more resistant to corrosion in harsh chemical conditions. It has more molybdenum, nickel, and chromium than conventional 316 or 304 grades, which makes it better at protecting against pitting, crevice corrosion, and chemical attack. The 317L stainless steel sheet has less carbon in it, which means that carbide doesn’t form as easily during welding. This makes it great for welded constructions that will be exposed to corrosive conditions. 317L stainless steel plates are great for critical industrial uses since they are strong, easy to weld, and easy to shape.

Applications and Benefits of 317L Sheets and Plates

317L stainless steel plates and sheets are used a lot in the chemical processing, pulp and paper, petrochemical, and maritime industries. The 317L plate’s excellent resistance to acidic and chloride-rich conditions, like sulfuric acid, brine, and seawater, is one of its best features. It also works well in high-temperature situations and stays strong and structurally sound after long periods of use. The 317L stainless steel sheet is excellent for making tanks, piping systems, and pressure vessels because it lasts a long time, costs less to maintain, and is less likely to corrode between grains after welding.

Uses of 317L Sheets and Plates

Flue gas scrubbers, chemical storage tanks, heat exchangers, maritime hardware, and process piping systems all use 317L sheets a lot. The 317L stainless steel plate is perfect for evaporators, condensers, and filtration systems that need to be able to handle harsh chemicals and moisture. The 317L plate works well in places where it needs to withstand severe corrosion and work well at high temperatures.
