Unified Numbering System (UNS)

1. Scope*
2

1.1 This specification covers chromium, chromium-nickel,

and chromium-manganese-nickel stainless steel plate, sheet,
and strip for pressure vessels and for general applications.
1.2 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units
are to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated in
each system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each
system shall be used independently of the other. Combining
values from the two systems may result in non-conformance
with the standard.

2.2 SAE Standard:4

J 1086 Practice for Numbering Metals and Alloys (UNS)
3. General Requirements
3.1 The following requirements for orders for material
furnished under this specification shall conform to the applicable requirements of the current edition of Specification
A480/A480M.
3.1.1 Definitions;
3.1.2 General requirements for delivery;
3.1.3 Ordering information;
3.1.4 Process;
3.1.5 Special tests;
3.1.6 Heat treatment;
3.1.7 Dimensions and permissible variations;
3.1.8 Workmanship, finish and appearance;
3.1.9 Number of tests/test methods;
3.1.10 Specimen preparation;
3.1.11 Retreatment;
3.1.12 Inspection;
3.1.13 Rejection and rehearing;
3.1.14 Material test report;
3.1.15 Certification; and
3.1.16 Packaging, marking, and loading.

1.3 This specification is expressed in both inch-pound and

SI units. However, unless the order specifies the applicable
M specification designation (SI units), the material shall be
furnished in inch-pound units.
1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of the
safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the
responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

Cold BendD

Unless otherwise indicated, a grade designation originally assigned by the American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI).
Yield strength shall be determined by the offset method at 0.2 % in accordance with Test Methods and Definitions A370. Unless otherwise specified (see Specification A480/A480M, paragraph 4.1.11, Ordering
Information), an alternative method of determining yield strength may be based on total extension under load of 0.5 %.
C
Either Brinell or Rockwell B Hardness is permissible.
D
Bend tests are not required for chromium steels (ferritic or martensitic) thicker than 1 in. [25 mm] or for any austenitic or duplex (austenitic-ferritic) stainless steels regardless of thickness.
E
Elongation for thickness, less than 0.015 in. [0.38 mm] shall be 20 % minimum, in 1 in. [25.4 mm].
F
Common name, not a trademark, widely used, not associated with any one producer.
G
Yield strength requirements shall not apply to material under 0.020 in [0.50 mm] in thickness.
H
Not applicable for thicknesses under 0.010 in. [0.25 mm].
I
Type 201 is generally produced with a chemical composition balanced for rich side (Type 201-1) or lean side (Type 201-2) austenite stability depending on the properties required for specific applications.
J
Rockwell C scale.
K
Naming system developed and applied by ASTM.
L
For S32615, the grain size as determined in accordance with the Test Methods E112, Comparison Method, Plate II, shall be No. 3 or finer.
M
Prior to Specification A240 89b, the tensile value for S32950 was 90 ksi.
N
S40900 (Type 409) has been replaced by S40910, S40920, and S40930. Unless otherwise specified in the ordering information, an order specifying S40900 or Type 409 shall be satisfied by any one of S40910, S40920,
or S40930 at the option of the seller. Material meeting the requirements of S40910, S40920, or S40930, may at the option of the manufacturer be certified as S40900.
O
Material 0.050 in [1.27 mm] and under in thickness shall have a minimum elongation of 20 %.
P
Hardness is required to be provided for information only, but is not required to meet a particular requirement.
Q
The minimum elongation for plates thicker than 0.630 in. (16 mm) shall be 8 %.

SUPPLEMENTARY REQUIREMENTS
A supplementary requirement shall apply only when specified in the purchase order.

S1. Charpy Impact Testing of Plate

on duplex stainless steels covered in both Specification A240 and Test

Methods A923 to be performed at the lower of the temperatures specified
by this supplementary requirement and Test Methods A923 Method B,
with measurement of both lateral expansion and impact energy.

S1.1 Charpy impact tests shall be conducted in accordance

with Test Methods and Definitions A370.
S1.2 Number of TestsOne impact test (3 specimens) shall
be made from one plate per heat treatment lot in the final heat
treated condition.
S1.3 Orientation of Test SpecimensUnless specified as
transverse specimens (long axis of the specimen transverse to
the final rolling direction, root of the notch perpendicular to the
rolling face) on the purchase order, the orientation of the
specimens shall be longitudinal (long axis of the specimen
parallel to the final rolling direction, root of the notch perpendicular to the rolling face). The manufacturer is permitted to
test transverse specimens provided that such tests meet the
acceptance criteria applicable to longitudinal specimens. Unless otherwise specified on the purchase order, the specimens
shall be taken so as to include the mid-thickness of the product.
S1.4 Test TemperatureThe purchaser shall specify the
test temperature. The manufacturer is permitted to test specimens at a temperature lower than that specified by the
purchaser, provided that such tests shall meet the acceptance
criteria applicable to specimens tested at the specified temperature (see the note below).

S1.5 Acceptance Limit Unless otherwise specified on the

purchase order, each of the three specimens tested shall show
a lateral expansion opposite the notch of not less than 0.015 in.
[0.38 mm].
S1.6 RecordsThe recorded results shall include the
specimen orientation, specimen size, test temperature, absorbed energy values (if required), and lateral expansion
opposite the notch.
S2. Materials for High-Temperature Service
S2.1 Unless an H grade has been ordered, this supplementary requirement shall be specified for ASME Code applications for service above 1000F [540C].
S2.2 The user is permitted to use an austenitic stainless
steel as the corresponding H grade when the material meets all
requirements of the H grade including chemistry, annealing
temperature, and grain size (see Section 6).
S2.3 The user is permitted to use an L grade austenitic
stainless steel for service above 1000F [540C], subject to the
applicable allowable stress table of the ASME Code, when the
material meets all requirements of this specification and the
grain size is ASTM No. 7 or coarser as determined in
accordance with Test Methods E112. The grain size shall be
reported on a Certified Test Report.

NOTE S1.1Test Methods A923, Method B, applicable to some duplex

(austenitic-ferritic) stainless steels as listed in Test Methods A923, uses a
Charpy impact test for the purpose of determining the absence of
detrimental intermetallic phases. Method B specifies a test temperature
and acceptance criterion, expressed as impact energy, for each type of
steel covered. It may be economical for the Charpy impact tests performed

A240/A240M 13c
Committee A01 has identified the location of selected changes to this standard since the last issue
(A240/A240M 12a) that may impact the use of this standard. (Approved April 1, 2013.)
(1) In Table 2, the thickness range for which the lower
minimum yield and tensile strength requirements apply was
changed from t 0.187 in. [5.00 mm] to t > 0.187 in [5.00
mm] for S32003.
Committee A01 has identified the location of selected changes to this standard since the last issue
(A240/A240M 12) that may impact the use of this standard. (Approved November 1, 2012.)
(1) Added footnote O to Table 1.
(2) Raised nitrogen maximum in UNS S31254 to 0.25 from
0.22.
