📘 Technical Specifications: GOST 12Kh17 Engineering Profile
12Kh17 (12Х17) is a straight-chromium, non-hardenable ferritic stainless steel. Its nominal 17% chromium content gives it excellent resistance to destructive oxidation at elevated temperatures and provides a highly effective passive layer against nitric acid and mild organic corrosives. Unlike martensitic grades, its low carbon content (max 0.12%) prevents it from becoming excessively hard or brittle, maintaining excellent forming characteristics.
Metallurgical Composition Limits (GOST 5632-72)
| Element | Target (%) | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| Chromium (Cr) | 16.00 - 18.00 | Provides foundational oxidation and corrosion resistance |
| Carbon (C) | ≤ 0.12 | Kept low to maintain ductility and prevent hardening |
| Manganese (Mn) | ≤ 0.80 | Improves hot workability |
| Silicon (Si) | ≤ 0.80 | Enhances scaling resistance at moderate temperatures |
| Nickel (Ni) | ≤ 0.60 | Residual limit; alloy is essentially nickel-free |
| Phosphorus (P) | ≤ 0.035 | Strictly limited to prevent cold embrittlement |
| Sulfur (S) | ≤ 0.025 | Restricted to ensure clean machinability and finish |
Mechanical Properties (Annealed)
| Property | Typical Value Range |
|---|---|
| Ultimate Tensile Strength | ≥ 450 MPa |
| Yield Strength (0.2%) | ≥ 275 MPa |
| Elongation (δ5) | ≥ 20 - 22% |
| Hardness (HB) | ≤ 183 HB |
| Magnetic Properties | Highly Magnetic |
| Formability | Excellent bending, drawing, and stamping |
Our 12Kh17 Bars are supplied in the Fully Annealed condition. As a ferritic alloy, it cannot be hardened by thermal treatment. Care should be taken when welding, as heavy cross-sections may suffer from grain growth in the heat-affected zone (for heavy welding, stabilized grades like 08Kh17T are preferred).
12Kh17 Cross-Reference & Global Equivalents
12Kh17 is recognized globally as the baseline 17% chromium ferritic stainless steel, universally aligned with the American AISI 430 grade.
| Standard | Designation / Grade | Sector Focus |
|---|---|---|
| GOST (Russian/CIS) | 12Kh17 / 12Х17 | Russian Appliances & Architecture |
| UNS (Unified Numbering System) | S43000 (AISI 430) | Global Commercial & Food Processing |
| EN / DIN (European) | 1.4016 / X6Cr17 | EU Automotive Trim & Cutlery |
| JIS (Japan) | SUS 430 | Asian Domestic Appliances |
| British Standard (BS) | 430S17 | UK Catering Equipment |
