Field of application

Automotive industry, construction industry, chemical industry, food industry, mechanical engineering, nuclear technology, pulp and paper industry, manufacture of everyday consumer goods. As delivered, the steel is resistant to intergranular corrosion (e.g. ASTM A262 Pr. E / EN 3651-2); in the welded condition, resistance is also guaranteed due to the low C content.
