Title: Procurement of type 316 stainless steel reference heat for LMFBR Research and Development Programs

Abstract

Various sizes of plate, sheet, pipe, rounds, and forgings were produced from a 200-ton air-melted heat of type 316 stainless steel, heat 8092297, made by the Republic Steel Corporation. These items were procured by the Union Carbide Nuclear Division and are stockpiled at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory for disbursement as reference material to ERDA contractors responsible for research and development associated with the Liquid Metal Fast Breeder Reactor Program. This reference material is characterized by singular control of chemical composition; specific traceability of items to each ingot cast; and of the highest quality complying with the requirements of the RDT Standard F 2-4T, Quality Verification Requirements, and the RDT material standards. The considerations involved in establishing specification requirements for this reference material are presented and the procurement specification ORNL-MC-316 appended. Processing and inspection activities are described, and traceability of each item to the ingot cast is presented in detail. The specific results obtained as verification of the chemical composition and the mechanical properties are listed for each size of item procured.
