Workability Cold workability is equivalent to standard austenitic stainless steel.
Weldability NASH38X is weldable by TIG, MIG, and shielded arc welding processes. AWS A5.9 ER3556 welding electrodes are commonly used.
Heat Treatment NASH38X exhibits an austenite structure similar to austenitic stainless steel and is heat-treated in the same way. Typical heat treatment is as follows.
・Solution treatment: 1,177~1,232℃, Rapid cooling
Pickling A mixture of nitric and fluoric acid is used in pickling.
Properties NASH38X provides outstanding high-temperature strength, oxidation resistance, and carburization resistance, as well as excellent creep characteristics in temperatures of 800℃ and above.
Applications Furnace parts, Heat treatment fixtures.
