TECHNICAL DATA SHEET
General notes:
» Low carbon austenitic steel (Material number 1.4435, DIN X2CrNiMo18-14-3, AISI number 316L)
» contains from 16.5 to 18.5 wt% chromium and has important quantities of nickel and molybdenum as additional
alloying elements
» non-magnetizable (80%)
» good corrosion resistance to most chemicals, salts and acids
» generally used where corrosion resistance and toughness are primary requirements
» typical applications include tweezers for the electronic industry, watch-makers, jewelers and laboratory and
medical applications in moderately aggressive chemical environments
