Due to its titanium stabilization, 1.4571 stainless steel demonstrates good corrosion resistance and is very well suited to use in the chemical industry. In a heat-treated state, it shows an almost completely pronounced austenitic structure. With the exception of gas welding, it is easy to weld using all procedures. Owing to its titanium content, however, high-gloss polishing of the material is not possible. Material 1.4571 is
not suitable for permanent use in seawater or in a sea-air environment.
