321 Stainless Steel Wire Mesh, Wire Mesh Supplier

321 Stainless steel wire mesh is also called SUS321 stainless steel mesh or S1.4541 wire mesh is a stainless steel mesh with very good stability. When the temperature reaches 800-1500 ° F (427-816 ° C) and chromium carbide precipitates, it can still maintain good resistance to intergranular corrosion. Due to the addition of titanium to the composition, the 321 stainless steel mesh can still maintain stability in the case of chromium carbide formation.

Features and Applications:

Stainless steel 321 is a very stable stainless steel. When the temperature reaches 800-1500 ° F (427-816 ° C) and chromium carbide precipitates, it can still maintain good resistance to intergranular corrosion.Due to the addition of titanium to the composition, 321 alloy can still maintain stability in the case of chromium carbide formation. 347 alloy is due to the addition of hafnium and tantalum to maintain its stability.  

Stainless steel 321 and stainless steel 347 are commonly used for long-term operations at 800-1500 ° F (427-816 ° C) in high-temperature environments. If the application only involves welding or short-term heating, use 304L instead. 

The advantages of high temperature operation of stainless steel 321 and stainless steel 347 also depend on their good mechanical properties. Compared with stainless steel 304 and stainless steel 304L, stainless steel 321 and stainless steel 347 have better resistance to creep stress and stress cracking.

This allows the pressures of these stable alloys to meet the American Society of Mechanical Engineers boiler regulations and pressure vessel specifications at higher temperatures.
Therefore, the maximum operating temperature of stainless steel 321 and stainless steel 347 can reach 1500 ° F (816 ° C), while stainless steel 304 and stainless steel 304L are limited to 800 ° F (426 ° C).
