RELEVANT PROPERTIES FOR USE IN SPACE COMMUNITY
General Corrosion StatusRequires specific corrosion protection
Stress Corrosion StatusHigh 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
MachinabilityThis alloy is readily machined by conventional methods. Machinability is best with the alloy in the normalized and tempered condition.
