MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF THIN GAUGE FIRTH VICKERS F.V.520 A CONTROLLED TRANSFORMATION STAINLESS STEEL SHEET MATERIAL.

Abstract

The report gives details and results of tension, compression, dynamic modulus, bend, fracture, creep and fatigue tests on the steel in the following conditions: (1) Supplied austenitic (fully soft), hardened by sub-zero transformation, followed by precipitation heat treatment; (2) As supplied after transformation on the strip mill production line, hardened by a low temperature treatment followed by precipitation heat treatment; (3) Austenitic FV 520 hardened by sub-zero transformation, cold rolled and precipitated to UTS of 75-90 tonf/sq. in.; (4) Austenitic FV 520 cold rolled transformed and precipitated to give UTS of about 90 tonf/sq. in.; (5) Austenitic FV 520 transformed by conditioning at 750 deg. C followed by precipitation heat treatment. (Author)
