The current pins are manufactured from 4130 hardened to 125K psi and cadmium plated. I am thinking of replacing them with 17-4 stainless steel in the H1150 condition. The machinists tell me they can turn them just fine in this condition. I can purchase the stainless steel in this condition...
Thank you much unclesyd. These are 1/2 inch pins, perfect. I interpolated from a chart that stops at 1050 deg F and got just slightly different numbers, but close enough. The numbers varify. Thanks again.
