difference between 410 and 410S
difference between 410 and 410S
(OP)
Hello Everybody,
What's the meaning of the "S" of SA240TP410S ?
The only difference is the limitation of carbon contents to 0.08 for the 410S, does it means better weldability ?

The above sentence should end at precautions. The remainder of the sentence was not deleted before I hit the send button.

Yes, the 410S ss has better weldability than 410 ss.

I'm glad that you confirm my thought, do you know a paragraph of ASME code or ASME specifications explaining the signification of this "S" ?
RE: difference between 410 and 410S
I don't exactly remember where the S designation originated for controlled carbon content (between L grade and conventional). I do know that the 410S stainless steel is commonly used in heat exchanger tubing for the petrochemical industry. Also, the S grade is not described in any of the ASME Code and Standards documents.

The reference to stabilization was made where small additions of Nb was added to improve welding by preventing hardening when quenched from above critical temperature. I have seen one reference that also calls for small addition of Ti for the same purpose.
