Product Overview

What are SS 321 Screws?

SS 321 screws are austenitic stainless steel fasteners manufactured from stabilized grade 321 (UNS S32100) bar stock, conforming to ASTM A193 and ASTM F593 standards. Alloy 321 is titanium-stabilized, providing superior resistance to intergranular corrosion and carbide precipitation during welding or high-temperature service. These screws are ideal for bolted joints exposed to continuous temperatures up to 870°C, where standard 304/316 grades may fail due to sensitization.

SS 321 screws are widely specified for exhaust manifolds, heat exchangers, and process piping in refineries, chemical plants, and power generation facilities. Their excellent oxidation resistance and mechanical stability make them a preferred choice for high-temperature bolted assemblies.

Material Chemistry

SS 321 Chemical Composition

SS 321 Screws are manufactured from an iron-chromium-nickel alloy with chromium (16–26%), nickel (8–28%), and grade-specific molybdenum additions per ASTM and ASTM A193/A194. Chromium content governs the self-healing passive oxide film; molybdenum (2–6%) enhances chloride pitting resistance; and carbon content determines sensitization risk in welded assemblies.

Why SS 321 Alloy Composition Matters for Screws

Titanium Stabilization — Prevents Sensitization
Titanium in SS 321 binds carbon, preventing chromium carbide precipitation at grain boundaries during welding or high-temperature exposure. This ensures screws retain corrosion resistance even after fabrication or service at 450–850°C.
High Chromium & Nickel — Oxidation Resistance
The 17–19% chromium and 9–12% nickel content provide excellent resistance to oxidation and scaling up to 870°C, making SS 321 screws ideal for exhaust, furnace, and heat exchanger applications.
Low Carbon — Maintains Ductility
Low carbon content ensures good ductility and toughness, reducing the risk of embrittlement in high-temperature bolted joints.
