317L Stainless Steel Sheet​

Thickness 6-25mm, organic acid treatment equipment, strong resistance to crevice corrosion

317L molybdenum alloy super corrosion-resistant plate features an austenitic structure with 19Cr-13Ni-3.5Mo, offering outstanding resistance to organic acids and crevice corrosion.

  • Organic Acid Resistance

    Corrosion resistance to acetic and formic acid is twice that of 316L, ideal for chemical production involving organic acids.

  • Crevice Corrosion Resistance

    With 3.5% Mo content, shows strong crevice corrosion resistance; in seawater, crevice corrosion time >8000 hours.

  • Thick Plate Performance

    Maintains uniform microstructure even at 25mm thickness, suitable for large storage tank fabrication.

Product Specifications

Chemical Composition
Element Content (%) Role in Corrosion Resistance
Cr 18.0–20.0 Forms passive film, resists oxidation by organic acids; stability of oxide layer in acidic environment improved by 40%.
Ni 11.0–15.0 Stabilizes austenitic structure, enhances resistance to non-oxidizing acids (e.g., formic acid).
Mo 3.0–4.0 Enhances resistance to crevice corrosion and organic acids; PREN = Cr% + 3.3×Mo% ≥34, superior to 316L.

FAQ

What is the main benefit of 317L stainless steel sheet?

317L contains higher molybdenum content than 316L, offering improved resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion in aggressive environments.

What industries commonly use 317L stainless steel sheets?

It is widely used in chemical processing, marine equipment, pollution control systems, and pulp & paper industries.

Is 317L suitable for welding and fabrication?

Yes. The low carbon content minimizes carbide precipitation, making it suitable for welding without post-weld heat treatment.

What thickness and surface finishes are available?

Sheets are available in various thicknesses with 2B, BA, No.1, and customized surface finishes.

Can 317L sheets be supplied according to ASTM or EN standards?

Yes. Products can meet ASTM A240, EN 10088, and other international standards upon request.
