Hi All,
I'm a new user and need some feedback about hot working 316/316L SS.
Here is the scenario:
Steel mill creates a 316/316L SS billet. All the chemicals and physicals are good and they solution anneal it so it conforms to MR0175 and 0103.
Then an extruding company hot forms it into a much smaller shape for us.
Does the extruded shape still meet the NACE requirements?
I can only find where the standard addresses cold work and cold deformations and also that hot work can not he a substitute for annealing.
There is literally nothing about hot working after the anneal...so is it allowed?
