Stainless Steel 308 Washer

Stainless Steel 308 Washers are primarily composed of iron, chromium, and nickel. The main alloying elements of the alloy are chromium (17-19%) and nickel (9-12%), along with a few other elements such as silicon, phosphorus, sulfur, and manganese. This composition provided excellent corrosion resistance and increased strength compared to standard carbon steels. Additionally, the combination of these elements makes SS 308 Washers suitable for use in high-temperature applications up to 900°C.

AISI 308 stainless steel washer are commonly used in many applications because of their excellent mechanical and physical properties. They have high tensile strength, good formability, resistance to corrosion, and high-temperature stability. The most common uses of these washers are in heat exchangers, pipelines and pressure vessels, valves, and fittings, condensing units, process piping systems, power generation equipment components, food processing machinery, and more. Their properties also make them ideal for use in medical instruments, nuclear reactors, chemical plants, and paper mills.
