Application Of 00Cr17Ni12Mo2N (AISI 316N) And 00Cr17Ni13Mo2N (AISI 316LN) Steel

Stainless steel has become a widely used material in the current engineering industry due to its superior corrosion resistance, heat resistance and wear resistance.Among them, 00Cr17Ni12Mo2N (AISI 316N) and 00Cr17Ni13Mo2N (AISI 316LN) steel have excellent performance and are widely used in various applications. This paper will introduces these two types of stainless steel, their uses and differences.

00Cr17Ni12Mo2N (AISI 316N) and 00Cr17Ni13Mo2N (AISI 316LN) steel are both commonly known as material AISI 316N and AISI 316LN, they belong to the austenitic stainless steel.The main difference between the two materials is the content of C, C of 00Cr17Ni12Mo2N (AISI 316N) is 0.06≤, C of 00Cr17Ni13Mo2N (AISI 316LN) is ≤ 0.03.

00Cr17Ni12Mo2N (AISI 316N) and 00Cr17Ni13Mo2N (AISI 316LN) steel both have excellent corrosion resistance, especially in the high temperature environment and chloride environment. The corrosion resistance of these two types of stainless steel is several times or even dozens of times higher than ordinary stainless steel. They have good weldability, it is easy to weld parts with these materials with thick or thin, medium or small section part, even complicated shape components welding can be completed easily. The 00Cr17Ni12Mo2N (AISI 316N) and 00Cr17Ni13Mo2N (AISI 316LN) steels have high resistance to interfunctional cracking, and the weld metal has good strength after welding. They also have good pitting resistance, it is not easy to produce local corrosion flaws.

00Cr17Ni12Mo2N (AISI 316N) and 00Cr17Ni13Mo2N (AISI 316LN) steels have excellent oxidation resistance, they can resist oxidation at a high temperature atmosphere 1500℃ around and can sutain long time working under temperature 1300℃. Moreover, they excel in wear resistance, strength and plasticity during high temperature. So they are widely used in the fields of components fabrication used under high temperature, such as turbine blades and exhaust pipe working parts, etc.

00Cr17Ni12Mo2N (AISI 316N) and 00Cr17Ni13Mo2N (AISI 316LN) steels are not only applied in the field of high temperature components fabrication, these materials are also suitable for making large volume containers, equipment and pipes used in food processing, automobile races, etc. Additionally, they can also be used to make steel parts such as valves, nuts, screws and valve fittings used in gas and water pipe connection.

To sum up, 00Cr17Ni12Mo2N (AISI 316N) and 00Cr17Ni13Mo2N (AISI 316LN) steels have excellent performance so that the materials can be applied in many fields, such as food processing, turbine blades and exhaust pipe, valves, nuts and screws, and water pipe connection. Different C content of the steel will make different mechanical properties, so users should pay attention to the material type selection when using these materials.

AISI 316N (00Cr17Ni12Mo2N) and AISI 316LN (00Cr17Ni13Mo2N) are austenitic stainless steels with improved nitrogen content. They are characterized by having low nitrogen content, high durability and excellent weldability.

AISI 316N and AISI 316LN stainless steels are commonly used in applications that require high levels of corrosion and oxidation resistance. This makes them particularly ideal for applications in harsh industrial and marine environments. Examples of uses of AISI 316N and AISI 316LN include chemical processing equipment and components, off-shore platforms, petrochemical plants, and process vessels.

AISI 316N and AISI 316LN stainless steels offer superior resistance to intergranular corrosion, pitting and crevice corrosion, and stress corrosion cracking when compared to traditional stainless steels. Their superior corrosion resistance also makes them suitable for use in environments subject to high temperatures, such as those found in exhaust systems.

These stainless steels can also be used in medical and food-grade applications, due to their low carbon content, low nitrogen content and good hygiene properties. Additionally, AISI 316N and AISI 316LN are widely used for decorative applications, since they are cost effective, durable and aesthetically pleasing.

Overall, AISI 316N and AISI 316LN are excellent options for applications that need wear, corrosion, oxidation and temperature resistance, as well as good weldability and cost effectiveness. They are widely used in a variety of industrial, marine, medical and food grade applications, as well as in decorative applications.
