347 Stainless Steel Bar

UNS S34700 (Grade 347)

347 stainless steel bar, also known as UNS S34700 and Grade 347, is an austenitic stainless steel made of .08% maximum carbon, 17% to 19% chromium, 2% maximum manganese, 9% to 13% nickel, 1% maximum silicon, traces of phosphorus and sulfur, 1% minimum to 10% maximum columbium and tantalum with the balance of iron. Grade 347 is advantageous for high temperature service because of its good mechanical properties; it also has excellent resistance to intergranular corrosion following exposure to temperatures in the chromium carbide precipitation range from 800° to 1500° F. It is similar to Grade 321 with respect to intergranular corrosion which is achieved through the use of columbium as a stabilizing element to maximize this feature. Grade 347 can not be hardened through heat treating, but elevated properties may be obtained through cold reduction.

Industries that use 347 include:

  • Aerospace
  • Valve

Products partially or completely constructed of 347 include:

  • Aircraft collector rings
  • Chemical production equipment
  • Engine parts
  • Exhaust manifolds
  • High temperature gaskets and expansion joints
  • Rocket engine parts
