1.4571 Stainless Steel – Titanium Austenite Material

What are 1.4571 Stainless Steels?

1.4571 is the titanium version of 316 Stainless SteelStainless steel grade 1.4571 contains a minor percentage of titanium in its alloy composition. Titanium content is usually around 0.5%. The titanium atoms strengthen the structure of type 316 at temperatures above eight hundred degree centigrades. This helps to avoid carbide precipitation at the grain boundaries and safeguards the material from the attack of corrosion. 1.4571 is also known as 316Ti. It can be held at elevated temperatures for an extended period. Most of the mechanical properties of 316 type remain same in 1.4571 grade.

Professionals know that 1.4571 has been used in the chemical processing industry for long even in the 1920s. 316L is appropriate for welding purposes of higher gauges whereas 1.4571 is appropriate for extensive application in the high-temperature environment. If 1.4571 intends to be welded, filler materials such as 1.4430, 1.4576 are recommended to be used.


Is 1.4571 Stainless Steel Magnetic?

1.4571 is austenite stainless steel. It is therefore nonmagnetic in its properties. Thus we can say that 1.4571 grade is a non-magnetic material.


What is EN 10088-3?

EN 10088-3 is a technical standard on stainless steel. It is titled “Technical delivery conditions for semi-finished products, bars, rods, wire, sections, and bright products of corrosion resisting steels for general purposes”. It enlightens the technical delivery requirements for semi-finished products, sections, bright products, hot or cold formed wire, bars, rods of special and standard grades of corrosion resistant stainless steel for general purposes. 1.4571 grade is also identified in the EN 10088-3 standard.
