Thermal Expansion Coefficients: stainless 316
700 to 800
Coefficient of linear thermal expansion (CTE, alpha) as a function of temperature for common engineering materials — steels, stainless steels, aluminum alloys, titanium, nickel superalloys, copper alloys, ceramics, and polymers at temperatures from -200C to 2000C (material-dependent)
| material | temperature C | CTE 1e6 per C (1e-6/C) | material category | mean CTE from 20C 1e6 per C (1e-6/C) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| stainless 316 | 700 | 18.5 | steel | 17.6 |
| stainless 316 | 800 | 18.7 | steel | 17.8 |
