301 Stainless Steel
AISI 301 Stainless Steel
Overview: 301 Stainless Steel
AISI 301 stainless steel is a notable austenitic alloy recognized for its exceptional fatigue resistance. Each instance of cold working boosts both its yield and tensile strength, which is crucial for applications demanding high load capacity. Products crafted from 301 steel can endure 33% more stress compared to those made from AISI 304, thus allowing significant reduction in material use and consequently, lighter final products.
However, despite its enhanced strength due to a higher carbon content (up to 0.15% in 301 compared to 0.08% in 304), 301 stainless steel has a slightly reduced chromium range (16% to 18%) compared to 304’s 18% to 20%. This adjustment results in 301 being less corrosion-resistant than its 304 counterpart. Additionally, its vulnerability to carbide precipitation during welding is a critical consideration when selecting stainless steel grades for specific applications. Thus, while AISI 301 stainless steel offers remarkable strength and efficiency in material usage, its selection should carefully account for the environmental conditions and corrosion risks it will face.
What Is 301 Stainless Steel
301 Stainless Steel Features
AISI 301 stainless steel exhibits moderate corrosion resistance and is not recommended for use in environments with severe corrosive elements such as salts, alkalis, acids, and reducing agents. It maintains its oxidation and corrosion resistance up to 843°C and is optimal for continuous operation below 871°C.
Due to its impressive strength, 301 steel is highly effective against wear and stress, making it ideal for components like fasteners, springs, and structural elements. It is primarily available in various forms such as coils and strips, with different hardness levels from annealed up to super full hard, conforming to ASTM A666 standards.
With a density of 8.00g/cm^3 at 20°C, AISI 301 stainless steel combines durability with lightweight properties, suitable for a diverse range of applications where strength and minimal weight are critical.
