CLC 17-12-2Ti is a Titanium stabilized austenitic stainless steel. 2% Molybdenum bearing ensures better corrosion resistance than CLC 18-9 L grade, particularly regarding to uniform and localized corrosion. The grade is stabilized by the addition of Titanium that avoids intergranular corrosion and ensures good mechanical properties at room and elevated temperature. Alloy CLC 17-12-2Ti is an austenitic microstructure grade, free of deleterious carbide precipitations but containing CNTi precipitations on grain boundaries. The grain is regularly fine and contains some residual ferrite (approx 4%) after solution annealing (1050-1150°C – 1922-2102°F) and water quenching. The CLC 17-12-2Ti steel resists much better to wet atmosphere or solution containing chloride or fluoride addition. The steel is not seawater resistant. The alloy may be used in diluted chloridric or sulphuric acids at low temperature (= 330°C - 626°F) as well as in sour organic solutions. The grade is also well known for its high ductility, particularly when considering cold forming. Information provided by manufacturer. |
