The salt spray test and its use in ranking stainless steels
www.worldstainless.org1. What is the aim of this brief? Due to its numerous properties and, specifically, its corrosion resistance, stainless steel is used for many applications in the Industrial, Automotive or Domestic sectors. Stainless steel is steel with a chromium content of more than 10.5%. By adding various alloying elements it is
WELDING OF STAINLESS STEELS AND OTHER JOINING …
nickelinstitute.orgBy definition, stainless steels are iron-base alloys containing 10% or more chromium, which imparts to the metal the corrosion-resistant properties for which stainless steels are so highly regarded. The chromium content may be increased and other alloying elements added or adjusted to meet specific end-use or manufacturing requirements.
Stainless Steel AL 17-4™ Precipitation

As with other precipitation hardening alloys, AL 17-4 Pre-cipitation Hardening Alloy is more susceptible to stress corrosion cracking at peak strength. Consequently, in
