STAINLESS STEEL SA-351 CF3

Stainless Steel SA-351 CF3 is the cast equivalent of Type 304L Stainless Steel. CF8 and CF3 have very similar chemical and mechanical properties. CF3 is a variation of CF8 and has a lower carbon content which improves weldability and lowers the risk of reduced corrosion resistance around the weld. CF3 is preferred to CF8 when there will be no post-weld heat treatment. Solution annealing is necessary for maximum corrosion resistance and to prevent intergranular attack. CF3 is used for applications below 345°C in industries ranging from food and beverage to nuclear power, petroleum and detergent manufacturing. Components produced in CF3 include impellers, manifolds and valve bodies.
