    Revised Norsok standards

    thanks BRUV: I had no idea that my customer should have supplied us with confirmation of acceptance. The only confirmation we received was in the form of purchase orders for the duplex stainless we were supplying and that would not help in obtaining orders from other customers. The mills we were...

    Revised Norsok standards

    In response to Jimsan: The specification reads that the purchaser of the material is the one to certify that the material supplied is produced per the specification. I am sure this would make it very difficult for Norsok to come up with an approved supplier list. This takes the responsibility...

    316SS replacement for high temp salt spray

    Mcquire is right. C276 will certainly do the job for you. As a lower cost alternative you may want to try a Nitronic 50. It has better corrosion resistance than a 316 or 317 stainless and is often used in salt water applications. It also has better galling properties than the 316 you are using...

    Difference between AA6061-T651 and T6511

    IFRS is correct as far as temper goes. The big difference betyween these tempers is that t651 is normally found on cold finished bar or plate products. The t6511 is for extruded products only. Normally when these options are included they mean you have a choice between extruded or cold finished...

    MONEL 400 DE-MAGNETIZING

    Thanks guys. I did not realise there was a difference till I tried degaussing. I guess the only option is annealing. I will let my customer know the bad news.

    MONEL 400 DE-MAGNETIZING

    We have finish machined parts manufactured from 1/2"dia monel 400 bar. We have now found out that these parts have much more induced magnetism than we thought. The bars themselves are magnetic (I assume from the cold drawing process). The test reports show that the material has been stress...

    Waukesha 88 (ASTM A494, Gr CY5SnBiM) corrosion data

    The Waukesha Foundry website says only that "Waukesha 88 (UNS N26055) can be used in any environment where 316 SS is used successfully." You might want to contact them for more info. http://www.waukeshafoundry.com/

    wear resistance of stainless

    YOU MAY WANT TO HAVE THE SCREW MANUFACTURED FROM NITRONIC 60. IT IS PROBABLY THE CHEAPEST OF THE NON-GALLING ALLOYS IN STAINLESS STEEL. THERE IS INFO ON THIS ALLOY AT: http://www.suppliersonline.com/propertypages/nitronic60.asp

    Magnetism developed by austenitic 304 stainless steel after cold worki

    If the size is not too great sending the rolled sections for annealing will get rid of the induced magnetism.

    Induction heating of Austenitic stainless steel

    If you do not want to go to the expense of using a nickel alloy you may be able to get away with using a duplex stainless steel such as 2205 (uns 31803). It will give you similar strength with about half of the cost. It depends on the temperatures you are encountering and whether they are...
