      abstract = {Soaking Time as a parameter of evaluating the Hardness value of Stainless Steel Type 301,304 and 316 was looked at. After the sensitization of the specimens, corrosion rate was analyzed. The samples were welded in twos making up 15 in number from each sample squaring up to 45 in all and, the samples heated and passed through soaking at 600C for different time interval of 30 minutes, 60 minutes, 180 minutes,300 minutes and 600 minutes and followed by Normalizing, Annealing and Quenching Quenched, Annealed and Normalized respectively. Hardness test were conducted on the samples. The findings got from the hardness test reveals that the samples after the corrosion test increased in hardness than those before in all three heat treatment in an Electric Furnace i.e., Quenched, Annealed and Normalized. As regards the case of SS 316, the results indicated that its hardness reduced tremendously. This result points to the fact that some degree of weld decay has occurred in the samples. To conclude, it points to shows that annealed samples had a higher hardness than the rest of the samples before and after the corrosion test and should be adopted.},
