Form: This specification covers a corrosion and heat resistant steel in the form of bars@ wire@ forgings@ mechanical tubing@ flash welded rings@ and stock for forging or flash welded rings. Application: These products have been used typically for parts requiring corrosion and heat resistance up to 1600 OF (871 ??@ but usage is not limited to such applications. At comparable elevated temperatures@ strength of this steel is slightly higher than@ and oxidation resistance is similar to@ the 18-8 type steels.
