This specification covers a premium aircraft-quality, corrosion-resistant steel in the form of bars, wire, forgings, mechanical tubing, flash welded rings, and stock for forging or flash welded rings. Primarily for parts requiring corrosion resistance approximating that of 18-8 type steels and high strength exceeding that of 12Cr martensitic type steels up to 700 °F (371 °C). This steel can be used in the solution heat treated condition and is capable of being precipitation heat treated to tensile strengths as high as 180,000 psi (1241 MPa) with good ductility and strength in the transverse directions in large section sizes. Although this steel is relatively immune to stress-corrosion cracking, reference should be made to ARP 1110 for recommended practices to minimize such conditions.
