Description:

Stainless steels are iron based alloys containing at least 10.5% chromium. They achieve their stainless characteristics through the formation of an invisible and adherent chromium rich oxide film. Alloy 316 is a general purpose austenitic stainless steel with a face centered cubic structure. It is essentially non-magnetic in the annealed condition and can only be hardened by cold working. Molybdenum has been added to increase corrosion resistance particulary in chloride containing enviroments. The lower carbon content of alloy 316L gives even better corrosion resistance in welded structures.

 

Application field

Widely used in Aerospace (turbine, nozzle, engine, etc)

Nuclear & Chemical (valve, drive devices, etc)

Powder can be used in laser/electron beam additive manufacturing (SLM/EBM), powder metallurgy (PM), spraying and other processes. Iron-based metal powder is widely used in 3D printing thin-walled devices and complex parts, hot and cold spraying, laser cladding, and biomedical fields.

 

Applicable Equipment: 

Powder can be used in various types of metal 3D printers, including Renishaw from the UK, EOS (EOSINT M series) from Germany, Concept Laser, 3D systems from the United States and many other laser melting equipment.

 

 

 

 

 

Note: If the alloy powder has moisture absorption, or the storage period exceeds 3 months, it should be used before

Carry out drying treatment (150℃, heat preservation for 2 hours)
