347S17 — ASTM Equivalent
Holding a datasheet that specifies 347S17 (BS)? The valve-grade equivalent, its properties, and certified supply of the matching ASTM grade.
What is the ASTM equivalent of 347S17?
347S17 is a BS designation corresponding to ASTM A182 F347 (Stabilised 347 Stainless Steel (Forged F347)) for industrial valve service. The full grade data is below - equivalence is by nominal chemistry and mechanical class, so confirm composition and heat-treat condition against the governing standard before substituting in critical service.
A182 F347
Stainless SteelStabilised 347 Stainless Steel (Forged F347) - forged form.
Typical service: Nuclear power (BWR/PWR) - piping valves in reactor coolant auxiliary systems; F347 resists sensitisation in high-temperature radioactive water service; Ethylene cracker and catalytic reformer - sustained temperatures above 450°C where 316L would sensitise; Hot hydrogen service (hydroprocessing) - niobium stabilisation prevents intergranular attack under Nelson curve conditions
