Alloy 321 is an austenitic chromium-nickel stainless steel containing Titanium. The titanium addition reduces or prevents carbide precipitation during welding and in 800 – 1500°F (427 – 816°C) service. It also eliminates the need for an anneal after welding. Alloy 321 provides excellent resistance to oxidation and corrosion and possesses good creep strength.
