| Process | Guidelines | |---------|------------| | | Best performed in the annealed condition. Cold working beyond 20 % strain may cause cracking in the hardened states. | | Welding | Pre‑heat not required for thickness ≤ 12 mm. Recommended filler metals: ER308L , ER309L , ER316L for corrosion‑critical zones, or EPRI‑17‑4 filler for matching alloy. Post‑weld heat treat (solution anneal + aging) restores strength. | | Machining | Good machinability in annealed state; H900 is tougher and may require carbide tooling, low feed, high rpm, and ample coolant. Typical cutting speeds: 60–90 m/min (HSS) → 150–200 m/min (carbide). | | Heat‑treatment after machining | If final dimensions are critical, perform solution anneal → water quench → age after machining to avoid distortion. | | Surface finish | Polished to < 0.2 µm Ra for critical corrosion zones; standard 120‑grit (Ra ≈ 2 µm) is adequate for most mechanical parts. | | Property | Value | |----------|-------| | Density | 0
