We supply Stainless Steel 321 and 321H Sheets and Plates in India and around the world. We create these sheets and plates using high-quality materials. We source these materials from trusted companies such as SAIL, Jindal, ESSAR, TATA, Bhushan, and some imported mills. This ensures quality, reliability, and consistency in every delivery.
With our modern facilities and skilled workers, we provide custom designs based on client needs and industry standards. Our products are known for their long-lasting durability, resistance to corrosion and oxidation, and strong mechanical strength. This makes them perfect for use in aerospace, chemical processing, refineries, thermal plants, power generation, and high-temperature applications.
Property | SS 321 (UNS S32100) | SS 321H (UNS S32109) |
Carbon Content | ≤ 0.08% | 0.04%–0.10% |
Titanium Stabilized | Yes (Ti = 5x(C+N)) | Yes (Ti = 4x(C+N)) |
Heat Resistance | Good | Excellent – Better suited for high-temp. |
Strength at Elevated Temps | Moderate | High – Preferred for pressure equipment |
Common Applications | Welding, aircraft, heat exchangers | Refineries, power plants, pressure vessels |
ASTM Specification | ASTM A240 | ASTM A240 |
321H is essentially the high carbon version of 321, offering enhanced creep resistance and strength at temperatures above 537°C. It is particularly used in structural and pressure-containing applications.

We ensure full traceability and customer confidence by including the following:
We follow safe and standard industry practices for packaging, including:
Grade | When to Use Instead of 321 |
304L | For intergranular corrosion resistance, not high temp. strength |
304H | For moderate temp. use up to 800°C |
310 / 310S | For higher temp. resistance up to 1100°C |
253MA (S30815) | For very high temp. resistance up to 1150°C |
347 | For similar corrosion resistance but with niobium stabilization |
