303 stsinless steel is the optiumum machining grade austenitic stainless grade. Selenium can be added to improve hot and cold forming properties. It is suited to nuts and bolts, bushings, shafts, ...

The machinability of AISI 1022 low carbon steel is graded at 70% against the 100% machinability of the standard AISI 1112 steel. In the black hot rolled supplied condition AISI 1022 steel’s ...

Eural USA Inc. has developed new lead-free, free-cutting aluminum alloys that are said to be compliant with restrictive limitations and provide high machinability and productivity. According to the ...

One aspect of stainless steel’s lower machinability is that it is a poor conductor of heat compared to brass. This raises temperatures during machining and reduces the life of cutting tools.

The machinability rating of a metal takes the normal cutting speed, surface finish and tool life attained into consideration. These factors are weighted and combined to arrive at a final machinability ...

Because HRSA materials are metallurgically composed to have high strength at high temperatures, the stresses that are generated when machining also are high. The unique capability of these nickel, ...

The large number of machinability tests developed in the past are limited by their ability to compare materials of different classes, e.g., ferrous vs. non-ferrous metals, and by the extrapolation of ...

Chin Chang, Graham Smith, Guy Littlefair, Machinability of Sintered Distaloy HP-1 Components, SAE Transactions, Vol. 110, Section 5: JOURNAL OF MATERIALS AND MANUFACTURING (2001), pp. 269-274 ...

Two precipitation-hardenable steel alloys developed for use in aerospace applications bring benefits to other metal-using industries. Precipitation-hardenable (PH) stainless steels are turning up ...
