347

347  is niobium-stabilized austenitic stainless steel bright bar. Niobium is added based on 304 with Nb ≥10×C and C ≤0.08%. Niobium combines carbon to form stable NbC, inhibiting chromium carbide precipitation at grain boundaries at 425~850℃ and eliminating intergranular corrosion after welding or long-term medium-high temperature service, as a molybdenum-free stabilized stainless steel.
Single-phase austenite and nearly non-magnetic after solution annealing. Balanced room-temperature mechanical properties with excellent plasticity, deep drawability and cold heading performance for uniform plastic deformation without brittle fracture. It cannot be hardened by heat treatment; cold working causes work hardening, while high toughness can be restored via solution annealing at 980~1080℃.

Core Advantages Over Competitors

1. High quality stability: Full closed-loop production and online spectral inspection strictly control C, Cr, Ni, Nb with stable Nb/C ratio. Uniform segregation-free austenitic microstructure ensures negligible batch fluctuation of medium-temperature anti-sensitization, creep strength and mechanical properties for consistent mass production of high-temperature welded parts.

2. Excellent surface quality: Dedicated high-precision cold drawing & centerless grinding lines produce bars free of scale, scratches and pits with smooth uniform finish. Smooth surface reduces alternating thermal stress concentration to extend fatigue life under hot-cold cycles; secondary polishing is unnecessary for most conventional machining.

3. Ultra-high dimensional accuracy: Precision cold rolling mills and automatic online dimension detectors narrow tolerance range with tiny single-bar error and strong batch uniformity. Unified part specifications during automatic mass production raise finished yield and machining precision.

4. Rich product variety: According to market demand and customer's special requirements, customized products are provided to meet the use requirements under various complex working conditions, providing customers with more choices.

5. Perfect after-sales service: The perfect after-sales service system can respond to customer needs and feedback in a timely manner. For problems encountered by customers during use, technical support and solutions are provided to customers quickly.
