Low Distortion High Strength Bar ( LDHS )

Posted by Jeff Kirchner on May 29, 2013 2:00:00 PM
This information is pertaining to Cond B or Cond S materials, or higher strengths. These strengths are also sometimes referred to as HPA Strength Levels 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 which cover a broad range of properties for the Nitronic grades. These strength levels developed by High Performance Alloys help to define the product properties delivered to customers. These strength levels help to convey the minimum properties that should be expected.

High Strength Stainless Steels

Posted by Jeff Kirchner on Oct 5, 2009 10:35:00 PM

While some austenitic stainless steels require cold working to achieve higher yield strengths, such as 304 and 316 condition B (Cond. B) - NITRONIC grades have great strength in the annealed condition. NITRONIC 60 and 50 have around 50 to 60 KSI yield strength - about twice that of annealed 304 & 316 SS.
