UNS S34700 (Grade 347) 347 Stainless Steel Angle Bar By yaang.com

347 Stainless Steel Angle Bar, also known as UNS S34700 and Grade 347, is an austenitic stainless steel made of .08% maximum carbon, 17% to 19% chromium, 2% maximum manganese, 9% to 13% nickel, 1% maximum silicon, traces of phosphorus and sulfur, 1% minimum to 10% maximum columbium and tantalum with the balance of iron. Grade 347 is advantageous for high temperature service because of its good mechanical properties; it also has excellent resistance to intergranular corrosion following exposure to temperatures in the chromium carbide precipitation range from 800° to 1500° F. It is similar to Grade 321 with respect to intergranular corrosion which is achieved through the use of columbium as a stabilizing element to maximize this feature. Grade 347 can not be hardened through heat treating, but elevated properties may be obtained through cold reduction.
