Harsh Metalloys is a renowned manufacturer and supplier of Stainless Steel 348H Sheets and Plates based in Mumbai, India. SS 348H is a high-carbon, stabilized austenitic stainless steel that offers excellent resistance to corrosion and high-temperature environments. Specifically developed for enhanced creep resistance and strength at elevated temperatures, these sheets and plates are ideal for heat exchanger tubing, pressure vessels, and chemical processing equipment. Manufactured as per ASTM A240 and other global standards, our 348H stainless steel sheets and plates are available in various thicknesses, widths, and finishes to meet diverse industrial requirements with superior quality and precision
Stainless Steel 348H is alloyed with chromium (17–20%), nickel (8–11%), and small additions of columbium (niobium) for stabilization. The “H” designation indicates a higher carbon content, which enhances its creep strength at temperatures above 800°F (427°C). Typical mechanical properties include a tensile strength of up to 600 MPa, yield strength of around 290 MPa, and excellent formability. Its stabilized structure prevents carbide precipitation, improving resistance to intergranular corrosion. These properties make 348H sheet and plates suitable for high-temperature and high-pressure service conditions in harsh industrial environments.
