Cladding of Stainless steel
(OP)
I need to understand the pro's and con's of cladd steel.
Is the cladding can be used as effecient as other SS with respect formability.

RE: Cladding of Stainless steel
You can form SS over CS well. But you don't want to re-heat treat afterward. you may seriously sensitize your SS and end up with little corrosion resistance.
This might require the selection of a different CS alloy than you would normally use.

I noted this posting dates back a few months. However the attached booklet will explain a lot of things about Roll Bonded Clad Plates.
Feel free to take a look and revert back with any queries, if you have. As a welding engineer in the past I had handled numerous cladded vessels and exchangers, involving, 304/316/321/347 S.S , Duplex S.S, Incoloy 625/825 and Monel 400 and Nickel-200 alloys, with various substrates,e.g C.S and LAS.

Go to DMC website for great information on explosion bonded plate http://www.dynamicmaterials.com/home
If you want more specific information you need more specific questions.

1. Much lower cost
2. Resistance to stress corrosion cracking.
It's [roll and explosion bonded forms] primary disadvantage is the long lead time to obtain due to its few suppliers.
