Description / Abstract:
Form
This specification covers a corrosion-resistant steel product in
the solution and precipitation heat treated (H1100) condition.
The aged product may be supplied directly by a mill or by a
producer other than the mill. The latter would be accomplished by
precipitation heat treatment of solution treated material
previously certified to AMS5643. The entity assuming responsibility
for the aging operation is designated the producer of
AMS5643/H1100.
Application
These products have been used typically for parts requiring
corrosion resistance and high strength up to 600 °F (316 °C) but
usage is not limited to such applications (See 8.1).
