303 stainless steel
347 stainless steel forgings are essential for high-temperature and corrosive environments, offering niobium-enhanced stability, oxidation resistance, and long-term durability. Their compliance with rigorous international standards ensures reliability in aerospace, energy, and chemical industries.
Descriptions
1. Chemical Composition
The addition of niobium (≥10×C% by weight) stabilizes the alloy against sensitization. Below is the detailed chemical composition:

2. Mechanical Properties
347 stainless steel forgings exhibit excellent mechanical properties in both annealed and high-temperature conditions:

3. Common Forging Product
Forged Flanges
Forged Valves
Forged Pipe Fittings
Forged Turbine Blades
Forged Heat Exchanger Tubes
4. Key Advantages
Niobium Stabilization: Superior resistance to intergranular corrosion compared to unstabilized grades (e.g., 304).
High-Temperature Strength: Retains mechanical integrity under prolonged thermal stress.
Weldability: Minimal risk of sensitization during welding.
5. Industry standards
