Product Description
X2CrNiMo17-12-3 EN 10222-5 1.4432 Marine Grade Stainless Flange EN1092

1.4432 is a stainless steel grade designation (EN/DIN) for an austenitic stainless steel very similar to 316L, but improved for enhanced corrosion resistance, particularly in chloride environments.

Key Element Functions
  • High Chromium (17–18%): Forms a stable, protective chromium oxide film for foundational stainless behavior and general corrosion resistance.
  • Nickel (12.5–13.5%): Stabilizes the austenitic structure, improving toughness, formability, weldability, and corrosion resistance.
  • Molybdenum (2.5–3.0%): Significantly enhances resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion in chloride-containing environments.
  • Low Carbon (≤ 0.03%): Reduces risk of carbide precipitation during welding, maintaining corrosion resistance in heat-affected zones.
  • Nitrogen (0.10–0.17%): Increases strength, improves pitting corrosion resistance, and helps maintain austenitic structure.
Typical Applications
  • Chemical and pharmaceutical equipment
  • Food and beverage processing
  • Components exposed to chlorides (marine and offshore applications)
  • High-hygiene and high-corrosion-resistance environments
  • Tanks, pipes, heat exchangers, and process equipment
Material Selection Guidance

When selecting materials for specific applications:

  • Verify exact composition and tolerance ranges from the steel mill's datasheet
  • Compare 1.4432 with related grades like 1.4404 (316L) and 1.4435 for especially aggressive chloride or acid environments
