Ferrite is defined as the solid solution of carbon in iron. What do we perceive from ferrite
number in welding? Ferrite number is the amount of retained delta ferrite into the weldment of
austenitic stainless steels, which may support mechanical and corrosion properties (if present
within the acceptable range). Ferrite number approximates 5-20. Lower limit is required for
protection from aggressive corrosion while the higher limit is required to assure the minimum
solidification cracking in weld deposits.

required amount of delta ferrite into the weld metal. As it is stated above cooling rate has an
amazing effect on ferrite number. As the cooling rate decreases, ferrite content tends to
reduce while on the other hand cooling rate increases, the ferrite content tends to increase
and (appear as fine particles into the microstructure). We should know that an acceptable
range of ferrite is required for particular service conditions when
However the factors like multipass welding, heat input, penetration and cooling rate are the
keys for controlling ferrite number in austenite welds. Recent Posts

There are many different types of foods that can be finger foods for the event. Not
everyone will want to choose only finger foods though.
They may want to have a meal that they are able to sit down and eat also.[

Thanks for providing such a valuable information ! There may a wide variety of stainless
steel products out which I know are; bars, purlins, pipes, plates, sheets and wires.

Hi! I think the article is about industrial manufacturing and construction, not for the food

Dear Sir,
thank you for the useful article.
we have a case, we have a 304 stainless steel pipeline in cryogenic service (-180 C), in
some locations we found increase in ferrite content considering that the line is in operation
since 10 years without any problem.
any specific tests do we need to perform to avoid any problem?
do you think that increased ferrite no. would affect a pipeline operating at -180 C?
looking forward to your reply.

Hello,
You have mentioned that annealing leads to increase in % Delta Ferrite, but earlier you
have also mentioned that the cooling rate is directly proportional to the formation of Delta
ferrite. As annealing involves slow cooling, the formation of delta ferrite should be less and
not more which is contradicting to what you have mentioned. Could you please explain.
Thanks Jack
