00Cr19Ni10 is an austenitic stainless steel characterized by a relatively low carbon content. This stainless steel is clearly defined and specified in the GB4237 standard. Due to its low carbon content, it exhibits superior resistance to intergranular corrosion and is therefore often used in welded parts that do not require heat treatment.
GB4237/4238 00Cr19Ni10 stainless steel features:
Excellent intergranular corrosion resistance: Due to low carbon content, 00Cr19Ni10 stainless steel can effectively resist intergranular corrosion, which is particularly important for some special application environments.
Good welding performance: The excellent welding performance of this stainless steel makes it widely used in parts that need to be welded.
High strength and toughness: Although the carbon content is low, 00Cr19Ni10 still maintains good strength and toughness, which can meet the needs of most structural applications.
The main chemical components of GB4237/4238 00Cr19Ni10 stainless steel include:
Carbon (C) : The content is very low, usually around 0.03%, which is a key factor in its excellent intergranular corrosion resistance.
Chromium (Cr) : content between 18-20%, chromium is the main corrosion resistance element in stainless steel.
Nickel (Ni) : The content is between 8-12%, and the addition of nickel helps to improve the corrosion resistance and toughness of stainless steel.
In addition, it also contains a small amount of manganese (Mn), silicon (Si), sulfur (S) and phosphorus (P) and other elements, the content of these elements are strictly regulated to ensure the stable performance of stainless steel.
GB4237/4238 00Cr19Ni10 stainless steel is usually delivered in hot rolled, annealed or normalized state. The specific delivery status may vary according to user requirements and manufacturer's process regulations. The user can negotiate with the manufacturer to determine the delivery status that best meets their needs.
GB4237/4238 00Cr19Ni10 stainless steel has been widely used in many fields because of its superior performance and characteristics:
Chemical industry: Used to manufacture a variety of corrosion-resistant pipes, tanks and reactors.
Food processing: Because its materials meet health standards, it is often used in the manufacture of food processing equipment, tableware, etc.
Medical instruments: Used in the manufacture of surgical instruments, medical instruments, etc., because of its good corrosion resistance and biocompatibility.
Construction field: In the field of construction, 00Cr19Ni10 stainless steel is also used for decorative materials and structural parts, such as stainless steel doors and Windows, railings, etc.
In addition, 00Cr19Ni10 stainless steel can also be used in Marine engineering, petrochemical, electric power and other fields, especially in those environments where the corrosion resistance of materials is required.
