Description / Abstract:
Form:
This specification covers a heat-treatable, corrosion-resistant
steel in the form of bars, wire, forgings, mechanical tubing, and
stock for forging or heading.
Application:
These products have been used typically for parts and fittings
requiring corrosion resistance and high strength at room and
elevated [up to 500 °F (260 °C)] temperature, but usage is not
limited to such applications.
Certain design and processing procedures may cause these
products to become susceptible to stress-corrosion cracking.
ARP1110 recommends practices to minimize such conditions.
