Is Nitronic 60 a stainless steel?
AK Steel’s ARMCO NITRONIC 60 Stainless Steel provides a significantly lower cost way to fight wear and galling compared with cobalt-bearing and high nickel alloys. Its uniform corrosion resistance is better than Type 304 in most media. Chloride pitting resistance is superior to Type 316.
What is the Rockwell hardness of Nitronic 60?
NITRONIC 60 properties
| Wear Compatibility of NITRONIC 60 wear compared to Cobalt 6B and 17-4PH Against Various Alloys | ||
|---|---|---|
| Alloy | Hardness | NIT 60 (HRB 95) |
| 304 | HRB 99 | 6 |

Is Nitronic 60 magnetic?
Nitronic® 60 is characterized by low magnetic permeability even after severe cold working and at cryogenic temperatures.
Does Nitronic 60 work harden?
Machinability. Nitronic 60 has a high work hardening rate, so although it’s machinability characteristics are similar to that of other austenitic stainless steels, the material will have to be held more rigidly and slower speeds used.
What is Nitronic 60® stainless steel?
Stainless steel Nitronic 60® stainless steel alloy is an all-purpose metal that can perform well in temperatures up to 1800° F. The oxidation resistance of Nitronic 60® is like Type 309 stainless, and far superior to Type 304S. Applications that directly benefit from nitronic alloys include:
What is the difference between 304 and Nitronic 60?
Nitronic 60’s uniform corrosion resistance is better than 304 stainless in most environments. The yield strength of Nitronic 60 is nearly twice that of 304 and 316 stainless steels. Chloride pitting resistance is superior to that of type 316 stainless; Nitronic 60 provides excellent high temperature oxidation resistance and low temperature impact.
Which is better 304 or 60 stainless steel?
Corrosion Resistance. Nitronic 60’s uniform corrosion resistance is better than 304 stainless in most environments. The yield strength of Nitronic 60 is nearly twice that of 304 and 316 stainless steels.
What is Nitronic 60 weld overlay?
The use of Nitronic® 60 weld overlay on most other stainless steels and certain carbon steels develops sound deposits with wear galling resistant properties about equal to an all weld deposit. Electralloy’s Nitronic® 60 Stainless Steel is supplied in ingot, forging billet, bar, plate and welding wire to meet the.
