All available types of resistant steels (Worldwide 3/2001-332)
This brochure provides an overview of available types and grades of corrosion and heat resistant cast stainless steels
and nickel base alloys. It describes their metallurgy, mechanical and physical properties, corrosion and heat resistance, processing by casting,
machining and welding, and
gives some recommendations
for a sourcing strategy. A comparison of cast and similar
wrought grades is provided in
tables. Typical applications
are illustrated. The description
of properties and chemical
composition and the designations of the grades are based
on the North American ASTM
standards and the UNS system. However, for each grade
the brochure indicates not only the various ASTM standards
but also provides the corresponding designations and
standard numbers of EN and
DIN and other international
standards. The brochure is
available free of charge under
the code number.
