Physical Properties of AISI 316N and AISI 316LN Steels

AISI 316N and AISI 316LN are austenitic stainless steels that are typically used for highly demanding industrial applications. Both steels have excellent corrosion resistance to chlorides, as well as good mechanical properties. AISI 316N is more corrosion resistant than AISI 316LN, due to its higher nitrogen content.

AISI 316N has an elongation at break of 48%, a Brinell hardness of 192, and a tensile strength of 520 MPa. It has a yield strength of 205 MPa, a Vickers hardness of 181, and a Charpy V-notch impact energy of 52 J. It has an elongation at break of 66%, a Brinell hardness of 200, and a tensile strength of 530 MPa. It has a yield strength of 215 MPa, a Vickers hardness of 186, and a Charpy V-notch impact energy of 58 J. The thermal conductivity of AISI 316N is 14.3 W/m-K, and its electrical resistivity is 0.000138 Ω-cm.

AISI 316LN has an elongation at break of 52%, a Brinell hardness of 212, and a tensile strength of 590 MPa. It has a yield strength of 245 MPa, a Vickers hardness of 192, and a Charpy V-notch impact energy of 55 J. It has an elongation at break of 68%, a Brinell hardness of 208, and a tensile strength of 600 MPa. It has a yield strength of 250 MPa, a Vickers hardness of 207, and a Charpy V-notch impact energy of 60 J. The thermal conductivity of AISI 316LN is 16.8W/m-K, and its electrical resistivity is 0.000135 Ω-cm.

Both AISI 316N and AISI 316LN are resistant to oxidation up to 870°C and have lower magnetic permeability than other austenitic stainless steels. They are also non-magnetic in the annealed condition. In addition, these steels can be cold-formed, welded, and heat treated without significantly changing the steels corrosion resistance.
