Outokumpu 1.4512

Generic Family: Steel - Wrought - Stainless - FerriticSupplied by: Outokumpu
Ferritic stabilized stainless steel
Type 12Cr-Ti stainless steel: EN 1.4512, AISI 409

Applications
  • Automotive exhaust system parts: mufflers, pipes, catalytic converters, support parts.
  • Constructional structures used in elevated temperatures.

Welding
  • Conventional welding methods and filler materials applied to austenitic 300-series can be used.
  • Titanium stabilized to be resistant against sensitization in Heat Affected Zone (HAZ).
  • Shielding gases should be based on Ar/He, mixed with some oxygen to improve arc stability. Hydrogen and nitrogen must not be used.
  • Heat input in welding should been kept in a minimum level.

Fabrication
  • Grade 1.4512 can be formed using typical forming processes like folding, bending, drawing, etc.
  • It has higher minimum proof strength than standard austenitic stainless steel grade 1.4301 / AISI 304 in combination with lower work hardening behavior.
  • Due to the stabilization, the r-value is higher compared to the non-stabilized ferritic stainless steel such as 1.4016.
  • These characteristics mean excellent deep-drawability and other forming related properties.

Corrosion resistance
  • Outokumpu produces grade 1.4512 with a typical chromium content of 11,5 wt-% .
  • Good corrosion resistance in moderate corrosive environment
  • Grade 1.4512 is not susceptible to chloride induced stress corrosion cracking.
  • The best material performance is reached usually with the help of adequate design, correct post-weld treatment and regular cleaning during use (if applicable).
