SPECIFICATION
AMS 5513, ASTM A 167, ASTM A 240

APPLICATION
Used where corrosion resistance and good mechanical properties are primary requirements. These grades are widely accepted in such industries as dairy, beverage and other food products where the highest degree of sanitation and cleanliness is of prime importance. Common uses are aerospace structures, food and beverage industry, pressure containing applications, architectural structures, and sanitary or cryogenic applications.

WELDABILITY
Easily welded by all the commercial processes except forging or hammer welding. The resulting weld had good toughness and ductility. Annealing is recommended after welding to maintain maximum corrosion resistance.
