Description: Soleil A2 has combined Chromium (~13%) and Carbon ~0.10%) additions to provide an excellent combination of high mechanical properties and improved corrosion resistance properties. The grade has a martensitic microstructure. The final mechanical properties may be optimized by selecting an appropriate heat treatment. In the annealed conditions the alloy presents ductility and may be formed. Chromium additions (~13%) improve the corrosion resistance, particularly in wet conditions when compared to C-Mn steels. Slightly acidified and abrasion conditions are considered. The main applications concern mechanical industry, oil and gas industry, sugar industry and constructional components.
