What is SUS321 stainless steel equivalent to?
SUS321 stainless steel is equivalent to AISI 321, UNS S32100, and European 1.4541 (X6CrNiTi18-10), offering similar properties to SUS304 but with added titanium for enhanced high-temperature strength and resistance to intergranular corrosion, making it ideal for heat exchangers, furnace parts, and exhaust systems.

What is SUS 321 stainless steel tubing?
SUS 321 is a titanium-stabilized austenitic stainless steel, equivalent to AISI 321 / EN 1.4541. The addition of titanium (Ti) prevents chromium carbide precipitation during welding or high-temperature exposure, making SUS 321 particularly suitable for continuous use in environments between 450–870°C.
