Nitronic 60®
Stainless Steel
Atlanta Rod
manufactures Nitronic 60® stainless steel hex bolts,
nuts, and screws to your custom specifications, and we guarantee
to meet your delivery schedule.
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 nearly every situation and Nitronic 60’s® chloride
pitting resistance is superior to Type 316. The room temperature
yield strength is nearly twice that of Types 304 and 316. In
addition, Nitronic 60® stainless steel provides
excellent high-temperature oxidation resistance and
low-temperature impact resistance.
Due to its
grain structure, the galling resistance of Nitronic 60®
is superior to that of any other stainless steel. It resists
wear, tearing or freeze up of both the primary and contact
materials over a wide range of service temperatures. The
elevated temperature wear resistance of Nitronic 60®
is excellent despite its relatively low hardness when compared
with cobalt and nickel-base wear alloys. It also performs well
in metal-to-metal wear in nominally inert atmospheres. The
cavitation erosion resistance of Nitronic 60® is
superior to the austenitic stainless steels as well as high
strength duplex (ferritic-austenic) stainless steels.
Nitronic 60®
stainless steel is available in bar, master alloy pigs, ingots
and forging billets. Other forms available include sheet and
strip, castings, extrusions, seamless tubing and plate.
Applications
for Nitronic 60® include:
|
Automotive valves - can withstand gas temperatures
of up to 1500°F for a minimum of 50,000 miles.
Fastener galling - capable of frequent assembly and
disassembly, allowing more use of the fastener
before the threads are torn up, also helps to
eliminate corroded or frozen fasteners.
Pins - Used in roller prosthetics & chains to ensure
a better fit of parts (closer tolerance,
non-lubricated) and longer lasting.
Marine shafts - better corrosion than types 304 and
316, with double the yield strength.
Pin and hanger expansion joints for bridges - better
corrosion, galling-resistance, low temperature
toughness, & high charpy values at sub-zero temps
compared to the A36 and A588 carbon steels commonly
used. |
