316LN stainless steel is selected as a material for Toroidal-field (TF) conductor jacket of International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER). When energized, the ITER TF coils experience large pulsed electromagnetic forces that the conductor jacket itself must withstand. The conductor will be compacted, spooled and aged at approximately 650 °C during manufacture. Therefore, the sample jackets were prepared under compaction, stretching and annealing to simulate the manufacturing process and operation of TF coils. The present Chinese TF jacket has good performance under standard conditions. In order to investigate more mechanical properties of 316LN jacket, the different cold working and annealing were applied to the raw materials. The samples were measured at 4.2 K, 77 K and 300 K. Youngs modulus, yield strength (0.2% offset), elongation at failure and SEM images are reported. There is no big deviation among different conditions. The test results show that Chinese TF jacket has good performance.
