    Alloy 303 Data Sheet


    AISI 303 / UNS S30300 / DIN 1.4305

    High Sulphur Free Machining Austenitic Stainless Steel

    Introduction

    AISI 303 is a non magnetic austenitic stainless steel and a modified version of Alloy 304 with addition
    of Sulphur to improve machinability. It has improved chemistry as compared to 18/8 Stainless Steel
    to display extra machinining performance maintaining good mechanical & corrosion properties.
    Stainless Steel 303 offers excellant toughness though sulphur addition imparts cutback to some limit.

    Corrosion Data

    Alloy 303 is fairly corrosion resistance as compared to other 300 Series Stainless Steel like 304, 316 etc.
    For better corrosion resistance, Alloy 303 should be used in annealed condition with passivation of
    parts. Due to Sulphur addition, SS 303 should not be exposed to marine environment resulting in
    Corrosion Pitting. Due to Sulphur alignment in rolling direction, Alloy 303 offers least corrosion
    resistance in cross section.

    Alternate to Alloy

    Alloy 304 is next best alternative to Alloy 303 with better corrosion resistance, weldability but at cost
    of machinability. Another possible alternative is Alloy 316 with improved corrosion compared to 303
    & 304. AISi 416 is also a possible alternative with higher machinability with lower corrosion resistance
    than 303.
