| Good to excellent corrosion resistance. Excellent cold workability; good hot formability. Commonly fabricated by blanking, forming and bending, turning, drilling, tapping. Applications: springs, flexible metal hose, Bourdon tubing, bellows, clips, washers, retaining rings, and other parts subject to severe forming conditions but require high strength, anelasticity, and fatigue and creep resistance; in parts that require high strength or wear resistance along with good electrical conductivity and/or magnetic characteristics such as navigational instruments, non-sparking safety tools, firing pins, bushings, valves, pumps, shafts, and rolling mill parts. TH04 temper wire; <2 mm; aged 1 hour at 330°C. |
