Material Notes:

AK Steel 18 SR® provides excellent resistance to high temperature scaling - far superior to that of Type 446 stainless steel. This material is readily welded by conventional methods. It is not subject to troublesome embrittlement or loss of corrosion resistance in the heat affected zones that affects many other straight chromium alloys. Typical uses include industrial ovens, blowers, exhaust systems, furnace equipment, heaters, induction furnaces and furnace tubes, annealing boxes, baffle plates, heat exchangers, resistor grids, kiln liners and pyrometer tubes.Information provided by AK Steel
