FAQs
What is the main use of Stainless Steel 347?
It’s ideal for high-temperature applications like heat exchangers, refinery piping, and exhaust systems where resistance to intergranular corrosion is essential.
How is 347 different from 304 or 316?
Unlike 304/316, 347 is stabilized with niobium to prevent carbide precipitation during welding or thermal cycling — making it superior in high-temperature welded structures.
Can 347 be welded without cracking or carbide issues?
Yes. Thanks to niobium stabilization, 347 can be welded with minimal risk of intergranular corrosion. No post-weld heat treatment is usually needed.
Is Stainless Steel 347 suitable for ASME code pressure vessels?
Yes, when supplied in accordance with ASTM and ASME specs, 347 is approved for pressure vessels operating at elevated temperatures.
What is the difference between 347 and 347H?
347H has higher carbon content, improving its strength at elevated temperatures. Use 347H in sustained high-temp pressure systems; 347 for general HT service.
