X6Cr17 Stainless Steel Manufacturer in China
X6Cr17 is a popular grade ferritic stainless steel. Elements present in this grade include carbon, manganese, and silicon. It has low carbon content which improves its welding characteristics. While manganese and silicon help to enhance their strength and toughness. X6Cr17 stainless steel has a relatively low thermal expansion coefficient. Thus, it is resistant to thermal distortion during heat treatment.
At Tuolian, we can easily form, weld, and machine stainless steel to suit various applications. We supply X6Cr17 in a wide range of sizes and thicknesses. You can request a range of forms such as plates, sheets, bars, tubes, etc.
