Request for Micrographs of grade CA-15 Cast Stainless Steel 1

[Guest102023]

As described in header; I've googled thoroughly and found very little. Hardness is 38~42 HRC, which I believe is at the higher end of the useful range. CCT and TTT diagrams are also welcomed.

I have one reference below. There are a few more from Flowserve Valves/ Edward Valves, please ask them for a copy. I do not have them presently.I am trying to locate them.

Did you look for 410 stainless steels.

Try ASM Handbook 8th Edition Volume 7 p. 151-153. This may also be in the 9th edition but I am too lazy to walk across the hall. The volume is titled "Atlas of Microstructures of Industrial Alloys".

pg 1644, fig 55.
Stick with the 8th ed, better info.

For more try the ASM Specialty Handbook, Stainless Steels.
There is a chapter on metallography and microstructures of cast stainless steels.

The Steel Founders Society of America publication " Atlas of Cast Corrosion Resistant Alloy Microstructures" may also be useful and covers cast stainless steels of most types in addition to the martensitic stainless steels.

@brimstoner,

If you could contact Raymond Monroe he could provide more references. He has been assisting me, with his publications. You can find his contact details on SFSA website. (
