Non-secondary 1.4571(316Ti) Stainless Steel Tubing

1.4571/316Ti is an improved corrosion resistant Chrome-Nickel steel alloy with high content of Molybdenum and someTitanium. It is not a typical free machining grade and therefore not recommended for difficult high speed machiningprocess.

Alloys 316Ti/1.4571 Similar to Grade 316L except that 316Ti has better high Temperature strength, and mechanical strength. Used for equipment exposed to aggressive corrosive conditions and high temperature applications,including automotive flexible connectors, welded bellows, chimney liners, and flexible ducting.

This grade is essentially a standard carbon 316 type with titanium stabilisation and is similar in principle to the titaniumstabilisation of the 304 (1.4301) type to produce 321 (1.4541). The addition of titanium is made to reduce the risk ofintergranular corrosion (IC) following heating in the temperature range 425-815C.The addition of titanium reduces the risk of IC since titanium carbo-nitrides are formed in preference to chromium carbides which has the effect of maintaining the correct distribution of chromium throughout the structure of the steel.

Weldability:

The weldability of the 1.4571 and 1.4404 / 1.4432 can be assumed to be similar. Neither of the grades can be expected to weld 'easier' or 'better' than-the-other. Niobium stabilised fillers (welding consumables) should be used for welding the 1.4571, especially where elevated temperature weld strength may be important. In other circumstances a '316L' filler should give a matching weld metal aqueous corrosion resistance to that of the 'parent' 1.4571 '316Ti' material.

Machinability:

The machinability of 1.4571 stainless steel can also be an issue as the titanium carbo-nitrides particles can result in higher tool wear and may not cold form or cold head as readily as the 1.4404 / 1.4432 types.
