Nitronic® 60 (AMS5848)

Our stock of Nitronic® 60 austenitic stainless steel bars offer excellent low-temperature impact resistance.

---

Nitronic® 60 combines superior corrosion resistance with good mechanical strength. The strength of the alloy is twice as much as 316 stainless steel. The product offers improved corrosion resistance compared to 304 stainless steel and resistance to crevice corrosion, and pitting is superior to 316 stainless steel. In both ambient and elevated temperatures, the galling resistance of the alloy is outstanding and, therefore, is highly suitable for applications where seizing or galling is a consideration.

In the annealed state, Nitronic® 60 offers excellent hardness, and similar materials would require heat treatment to boast such superior hardness levels. The material represents a highly cost-effective engineering material solution for wear resistance compared to alloys such as nickel and cobalt.

Commercial Applications

The alloy finds use on valve systems, fasteners and sanitary equipment. Unlike many austenitic grades, Nitronic® 60 is characterised by low magnetic properties when cold-worked or cooled to sub-zero temperatures.
