CLC 18-10ti: A Ti Stabilized 18Cr-10Ni Austenitic Stainless Steel (321 Grade)
CLC 18-10Ti is a 18Cr-9Ni austenitic stainless steel stabilized with some Titanium
additions.
This kind of steel is one of the basic grades of the stainless steels range. Titanium
bearing (carbide forming element) avoids intergranular corrosion, even on welded
pieces without ulterior water quenching.

Cutting
Thermal cutting (plasma, thermal sawing…). After cutting pickling or grinding are
necessary to eliminate the oxide formed layer.
Mechanical cutting (shearing, stamping, cold sawing…)
Welding
The alloy, satbilized by Titanium addition, can be very easy welded without hot
cracking phenomenon, using an adequate filler metal (from 5 to 15% δ ferrite).
The alloy is not sensitive to cold cracking phenomenon. All welding processes can
be used including filler processes.
Filler material
MACHINING Due to its cold work hardening, the alloy is less machinable than structural steel or
than a 13% Cr martensitic stainless steel.

- Urban media
- Most of diluted organic acids at moderate temperatures
- Most of food and pharmaceutical products
- Pure phosphoric . Whatever concentration in cold solution
. Up to 10% diluted hot solution
- Caustic solutions free of chlorides or fluorides at medium temperatures.
The alloys is not corrosion resistant in chloride containing solutions, even diluted,
and in sulphuric acid media.
So, the main applications are
- food processing and storage
- chemical industry
- high temperature
