1055, C55, C55E, and C55R are wrought medium-carbon non-alloy steels that are used in the normalized, cold worked, quenched and tempered, or austempered condition. 1055, C55E, and C55R may also be flame or induction hardened. These steels are widely used for moderately and highly stressed parts that require higher strength levels than can be achieved by the lower carbon grades, and where the expense of an alloy steel is not justified. They are also used for applications where the higher carbon is needed to improve wear characteristics. This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, hardness, elasticity, and tensile properties. It also includes information on corrosion resistance as well as forming, heat treating, machining, and joining. Filing Code: CS-219. Producer or source: Data Survey.

METGLAS MBF-50A is a brazing foil in ductile, flexible metallic-glass form (A similar grade, MBF-50, is identical except that it has larger dimensional tolerances). It was developed for high-temperature service. It provides high-strength joints with superior resistance against oxidation and corrosion. This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, and microstructure. It also includes information on forming, heat treating, and joining. Filing Code: Ni-349. Producer or source: Allied Signal Corporation.

H22 is a tungsten hot work steel with the principal alloying elements of carbon, tungsten, chromium and vanadium. It resists softening at elevated temperatures. This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, and elasticity as well as fracture toughness. It also includes information on high temperature performance as well as heat treating and machining. Filing Code: TS-533. Producer or source: Tool steel mills.

PYROMET V-57 is an austenitic, iron-base precipitation-hardening alloy designed for service up to 1400 F (760 C) with good corrosion resistance at operating temperatures. The alloy is usually consumable-electrode, vacuum melted. This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, elasticity, and tensile properties as well as creep. It also includes information on high temperature performance as well as forming, heat treating, and machining. Filing Code: SS-474. Producer or source: Carpenter.

Ispat Inland MartINsite is a low-carbon cold-rolled ultrahigh-strength steel available in four grades with minimum tensile strengths of 900 MPa (130 ksi) (M-130), 1100 MPa (160 ksi) (M-160), 1310 MPa (190 ksi) (M-190), and 1520 MPa (220 psi) (M-220). This steel can be used where high strength and/or lightweight are required and can substitute for high-carbon alloy steels, spring steels, and some nonferrous alloys at significant savings in cost. Electrosite is an electrogalvanized form of M-190. This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, elasticity, tensile properties, and bend strength. It also includes information on wear resistance as well as heat treating and surface treatment. Filing Code: CS-62. Producer or source: Ispat Inland Inc. Originally published as Inland MartINsite, October 1976, revised February 2003.

Cf 53 is a wrought medium-carbon (carbon = 0.50–0.57%) non-alloy steel that is used in the normalized, cold worked, or quenched and tempered condition. Cf 53 may also be flame or induction hardened. This steel is widely used for moderately and highly stressed parts that require higher strength levels than can be achieved by the lower carbon grades, and where the expense of an alloy steel is not justified. Owing to their low hardenability, their use in the quench hardened and tempered condition is not recommended for large sizes. This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, hardness, elasticity, and tensile properties. It also includes information on corrosion resistance as well as forming, heat treating, machining, and joining. Filing Code: CS-239. Producer or source: Data Survey.
