Description: CLC 18-9L is a 18Cr-9Ni austenitic stainless steel. The grade contains small amount of ferrite (~ 3%) after solution annealing (1000-1100°C – 1832-2012°F) and water quenching. This kind of steel is one of the basic grades of the stainless steels range. Its low carbon content ensures better ductility and avoids the intergranular corrosion, even on welded pieces without ulterior water quenching. Alloys CLC 18-9L exhibits an austenitic microstructures free of deleterious carbide precipitations at grain boundaries. The main properties of CLC 18-9L are: basic corrosion resistance, resistance against intergranular corrosion, and high ductility. Tensile properties after water quenching.
