| General Corrosion Status | Requires specific corrosion protection |
| Stress Corrosion Status | High Resistance to SCC: Table 1: UTS below 125 kg/mm2
A small number of laboratory failures of specimens cut from plate more than 2 inches thick have been observed at 75% yield, even within this ultimate strength range. The use of thick plate should therefore be avoided in a corrosive environment when sustained tensile stress in the short transverse direction is expected. Moderate Resistance to SCC: Table 2: UTS 125 to 140 kg/mm2 UTS Remark: Requires Stress corrosion evaluation form Low Resistance to SCC: Table 3: UTS above 140 kg/mm2 UTS Remark: Not for primary structural items Remark: Requires Stress corrosion evaluation form Remark: acc. to ECSS-Q-ST-70-36C Data Quality: Design Data |
| Machinability | This alloy is readily machined by conventional methods. Machinability is best with the alloy in the normalized and tempered condition. |
