Does anyone know the most resistant stainless steel grade temperatures to ferric chloride ate ambient temeperatures?

If there is a fair amount of air exposure or other oxidizer, then C-22 will probably work better. I've seen C-22 come out of a 3 day 6% FeCl3 test with mirror finish intact.
If 1% is an occasional maximum, perhaps one of the 6% Mo stainless steels will work (Al6XN, for example). But even 1% FeCl3 has a low enough pH that it will probably challenge this subfamily. I'd really want to see some test exposures before committing to this choice.

The temperature increases 2C for each 1% chromium and 6.6C for each 1% molybdenum. 0.1% nitrogen gives you 3.2C. Subtract for sulfur and surface abrasion..more complicated. Welding takes 10 to 15C off the rsistance. In effect you can build your own alloy.
Go for a good 10C over the intended use temperature. That says at least 2205, better 2507 or a 6%moly austenitic.
