    Characteristics of 631 Stainless Steel

  • Exceptional High Strength: Can be heat-treated to achieve extremely high tensile strength and hardness, making it ideal for high-stress components.
  • Precipitation-Hardenable: Its mechanical properties are achieved through low-temperature heat treatments, which can be performed after fabrication.
  • Good Formability: In its annealed condition (Condition A), this material exhibits excellent ductility.
  • Excellent Corrosion Resistance: Offers corrosion resistance comparable to that of Type 304 stainless steel.
  • Minimal Distortion on Hardening: The low-temperature heat treatment process ensures high dimensional stability in finished parts.
  • High Fatigue Life: Its superior strength and toughness give it excellent fatigue properties.
  • Elevated Temperature Service: Maintains its desirable high-strength properties at temperatures up to 316°C (600°F).
  • Versatile High-Tech Applications: A preferred material for complex parts in the aerospace and chemical processing industries.
