Abstract AVESTA STAINLESS 44LN is an austenitic-ferritic stainless steel with good resistance to various types of corrosion. It is highly resistant to stress-corrosion cracking in chloride-containing media. Its yield strength is approximately twice that of austenitic stainless steels. Other properties, such as machinability and weldability also are favorable. AVESTA STAINLESS 44LN is a very suitable material for equipment which comes into contact with sour gas or sour oil and other chloride-containing media. This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, hardness, elasticity, and tensile properties. It also includes information on high temperature performance and corrosion resistance as well as forming, heat treating, machining, and joining. Filing Code: SS-471.
