The nitrogen content of Alloy 317LMN acts as a strengthening agent giving it a higher yield strength than 317L .Alloy 317LMN is also a low carbon grade which enables it to be used in the as-welded condition free from chromium carbide precipitation on the grain boundaries.
Alloy 317LMN is non-magnetic in the annealed condition. It cannot be hardened by heat treatment, only by cold working. The alloy can be easily welded and processed by standard shop fabrication practices.
The higher molybdenum and nitrogen content of Alloy 317LMN assures superior general and localized corrosion resistance in most media when compared with 304/304L, 316/316L and even 317L stainless steels. Environments that don't attack 304/304L stainless steel will normally not corrode 317LMN. One exception, however, are strongly oxidizing acids such as nitric acid. Alloys that contain molybdenum generally do not perform as well in these environments.
Alloy 317LMN has excellent corrosion resistance in a wide range of chemicals. It resists attack in sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, acidic chlorine and phosphoric acid. It is used in handling hot organic and fatty acids often present in food and pharmaceutical processing applications.
Because of its low carbon content, Alloy 317LMN should be utilized when it will be exposed to temperatures in the chromium carbide precipitation range of 800-1500°F (427-816°C). The higher nitrogen content of 317LMN further retards the precipitation of sigma phase as well as carbides.
In general, austenitic stainless steels are subject to chloride stress corrosion cracking in halide service. Although 317LMN is somewhat more resistant to stress corrosion cracking than 304/304L stainless steels, because of its higher molybdenum content, it is still susceptible.
The higher chromium, molybdenum and nitrogen content of 317LMN enhance its ability to resist pitting and crevice corrosion in the presence of chlorides and other halides. The Pitting Resistance Equivalent including Nitrogen number (PREN) is a relative measure of pitting resistance. The following chart offers a comparison Alloy 317LMN and other austenitic stainless steels.

Alloy 317LMN can be easily welded and processed by standard shop fabrication practices.
The cold formability of Alloy 303 is adversely impacted by the high sulfur content. The alloy may be bent with a generous bend radius, however, when cold forming is required, 304 should be utilized.
The alloy is quite ductile and forms easily. The addition of molybdenum and nitrogen implies more powerful processing equipment may be necessary when compared with the standard 304/304L grades.
The cold work hardening rate of Alloy 317LMN makes it less machinable than 410 stainless steel. The table below provides relevant machining data.
