K18, what is this material?
(OP)
Hi to all!
I have a part from a turbine that I have to weld.
I called the factory and they told me that it was made from K18.
Its a kind of stainless steel, I need to know the chemical composition and the pre/post weld process to weld it.
Hope somebody knows the equivalent in ASTM, AWS, etc etc.
Thanks!

RE: K18, what is this material?
Have the piece subjected to PMI (Positive Material Identification) using a portable x-ray florescence (XRF) unit. Once the material is typed, you can let us know the grade of stainless steel.

have you tried to Google this: "K18 steel"?
It will give you more insight and links to what you want to know.
