X8 CrNi 18 12

Printer Friendly Page
Introduction:

This steel contains an extra 2%Ni above the 304-type alloys (UNS S304xx). This results in an even higher stability of the austenitic structure which is desirable for severe cold forming operations. Even after 80% reduction, stability and magnetic response (eg. B/H 1.1) are hardly altered.
This alloy has excellent cold drawability and is included as X 8 CrNi 18 12 KD in Euronorm 119-74 'Steels for Cold Upsetting and Cold Extrusion'.
Corrosion characteristics are similar to the 18Cr10Ni grades.
Produced as sheet, tube, bar, etc for use in severe cold working operations, eg. deep drawing, cold forming, and cold heading.
