What is 080A15?

What is 080A15?

EN32 (080A15) is a general engineering steel, suitable in applications where heavy stresses and heat treatment are not involved. High Peak Steels stock this in a range of sizes and shapes. It is a bright drawn, or turned, mild steel with good machinability.

What are the properties of austenitic stainless steel?

Austenitic Stainless Steels

  • Excellent corrosion resistance.
  • Non-magnetic when annealed.
  • Rapidly work harden with cold work.
  • Not hardenable by heat treatment.
  • Ductile and readily formable.
  • Excellent weldability.
  • Hygienic with excellent cleanability.
  • Good performance at high temperatures.

What does 316 mean for stainless steel?

316 grade stainless steel is an austenitic form of stainless steel known for its 2-3% molybdenum content. The added molybdenum makes the metal more resistant to pitting and corrosion, as well as improving resistance when exposed to elevated temperatures.

What is stainless steel properties?

Stainless steel has different corrosion properties which include being non-corrosive, rust-resistant steel, which is simply designated as stainless steel. In comparison with aluminium, stainless steel is approximately 3 times heavier. Stainless steel, like steel itself, is an alloy.

What is difference between 316 and 316L material?

316L stainless steel is almost identical to 316. The only difference is the carbon content. 316L’s lower carbon content imparts even better corrosion resistance than 316. 316L does not require post-weld annealing.

What is the composition of SS316?

Chemical Composition of Stainless steel 316

% 316 316H
S 0.0-0.02 0.0-0.02
Cr 16.50-18.50 16.50-18.50
Mo 2.00-2.50 2.00-2.50
Ni 10.00-13.00 10.00-13.00

What is austenitic stainless steel material?

Austenitic stainless steel is a type of steel alloy which is composed of iron, carbon, chromium, nickel and other minor alloys. Austenitic steels can be divided into two groups: 300 series and 200 series.

What can 080a15 steel be used for?

A popular low carbon bright mild steel 080A15 gives reasonable strength and is commonly used for general engineering applications such as shafts, spindles, gears, bolts, spacers, brackets, fixtures and jigs. 080A15 is commonly supplied bright drawn, if the steel requires normalising heat to 880-910°C then furnace cool.

What are the properties of 316 grade stainless steel?

Stress Relieving Temperature When the weldment of 316 grade stainless steel is not suitable for complete annealing, the residual stress can be moderately lowered below 600 °C, which makes it have good creep resistance.

What kind of corrosion does alloy 316 / 316L resist?

Alloy 316/316L resists atmospheric corrosion, as well as, moderately oxidizing and reducing environments. It also resists corrosion in polluted marine atmospheres. The alloy has excellent resistance to intergranular corrosion in the as-welded condition.

What should furnace cool temperature be for 080a15 steel?

080A15 is commonly supplied bright drawn, if the steel requires normalising heat to 880-910°C then furnace cool. If stress relieving is required heat to a temperature of 650°C and allow to cool in air.
