Stainless Steel Metallurgy

There are a wide variety of wrought stainless steel alloys, each designed to have specific properties. For many applications that use stainless steel, the primary properties of interest are corrosion resistance and strength.

Watch this video of a past webinar to learn about wrought stainless steel metallurgy, including the effects of stainless steel composition, type of stainless steel, cold working, and heat treating on the strength and corrosion resistance of commonly used stainless steel alloys. There will also be a brief discussion of the effects of alloy composition and type of stainless steel on ease of forming and machining components.

You will have 14 days access to the webinar recording. A pdf file of the presentation slides is available for download.
