Stabilized SS310S requirements.

[Dawgee]

Hello all,

I've been a reader on the forum for a while but never posted a question.

Today I am in a bit of a doubt and would appreciate some input on the subject.

We had a old project where the project specs required that SS310s should be supplied in stabilized condition and the sub-contractor provided MTC's for this material with Ti and Nb listed in the product analysis. Along with this the plates are Solution Annealed and a min. temp of 1050 Deg C.

Is this sufficient information to understand that the plates were supplied stabilized ?
PS: I am not much into the material parts and want to understand this for my knowledge. Uncle google does not give any clear answers and the new AI is unreliable.

Thank you for your inputs.


DD.

Frist I'll presume that you are not in the US.
In the US 310S is S31008 and there is no version listed in the specs that has Ti and/or Nb.
So guessing that this is a European alloy.
And the temp listed is an anneal temp (a bit low for this grade but still annealing)
Stabilization should be more like 700C
