JIS SUS317J2 Austenitic Stainless Steel Plate/Coil Introduction

SUS317J2 is a low-carbon, high-chromium austenitic stainless steel with additions of nickel and molybdenum. Designed for superior resistance to sulfuric acid and other aggressive environments, it offers excellent intergranular corrosion resistance in the as-welded condition due to its low carbon content (≤0.03%). Key attributes include:

  • High chromium (23-26%) and nickel (13-16%) content for strong acid resistance
  • Molybdenum (0.5-1.2%) enhances pitting and crevice corrosion performance
  • Good mechanical strength and ductility, suitable for forming and welding
  • Typical supply forms: hot-rolled or cold-rolled plates, coils, and sheets

JIS SUS317J2 Austenitic Stainless Steel Plate/Coil Application Introduction

SUS317J2 is optimized for severe acidic environments, particularly those containing sulfuric acid. Its low carbon and balanced alloy design minimize sensitization and ensure long service life in corrosive chemical processes. Typical applications include:

  • Storage and transport of concentrated sulfuric acid
  • Flue gas desulfurization scrubbers and ducting
  • Pulp and paper bleach plants
  • Pharmaceutical and food processing equipment

Product Applications: Sulfuric acid storage tanks, Pressure vessels and columns, Heat exchangers and condensers, Process piping and fittings, Ducting and stacks for FGD systems, Reactors and digesters

Processed into products: Flanges and gaskets, Valve bodies and trim, Pump casings and impellers, Fasteners (bolts, nuts), Expansion joints, Internal lining sheets and weld overlays

Application industries: Chemical Processing, Petrochemical, Flue Gas Desulfurization (FGD), Pulp & Paper, Pharmaceutical, Food Processing

JIS SUS317J2 Austenitic Stainless Steel Plate/Coil Similar Alternative Materials and Near-Equivalents

Country/RegionStandardGradeNotes
JapanJIS G4304/G4305SUS317J1Higher carbon content (≤0.08%), otherwise same composition; lower weld corrosion resistance
USAASTM A240/A240MUNS S31700Different composition (Cr 18-20, Ni 11-15, Mo 3-4); only similar in being an austenitic stainless steel, not a direct substitute

Notes:

Welding: Use low-carbon filler metals such as ER317L or ER385 to maintain corrosion resistance. Generally, post-weld heat treatment is not required, but stress relieving may be applied when risk of chloride stress corrosion cracking exists. Formability: Good cold formability, but higher strength than standard 304/316 requires appropriate force. Machinability: Similar to other austenitic stainless steels; work hardening tendency should be managed with sharp tools and adequate cooling.
