Nitronic 50 Stainless Steel Supplier
Ram Alloys is a leading supplier of Nitronic 50 stainless steel in a variety of shapes including round bar, square bar, hex bar and mill flats. Nitronic 50 is an XM-19 (UNS S20910) stainless steel grade that offers superior strength and corrosion resistance when compared to the other common austenitic stainless steel grades. At room temperature, grade XM-19 displays double the yield strength of grades 316/316L and 317/317L along with higher levels of oxidation resistance, especially in marine applications.
Standard XM-19 Composition:
- Chromium: 20 to 23 percent
- Nickel: 11 to 13 percent
- Manganese: 4 to 6 percent
- Molybdenum: 1.5 to 3 percent
- The balance (55 to 63.5 percent) is comprised of iron
Nitronic 50 Stainless Steel (XM-19) Characteristics:
Stainless steel grade XM-19 is widely used in a long list of industries, including oil and gas, petrochemical, pump, marine, chemical processing and transportation, nuclear, and pulp and paper. Its specific performance attributes include:
- Outstanding tensile & yield strength
- Elite resistance to corrosion, especially in marine environments
- Strong mechanical performance properties, particularly at high-temperature elevations & in sub-freezing conditions
- Corrosion-resistant
Benefits:
Unlike some other stainless steel grades, alloy XM-19 will not become magnetic with prolonged exposure to cold temperatures.
XM-19 High Strength (HS) has been specially processed to enhance specific attributes and performance characteristics. The HS process gives this metal higher strength, a technique that involves dual rolling, and cold working (all of which combine to boost final product durability).
Nitronic 50 Stainless Steel (XM-19) grade is extremely versatile and high-performing, given the numerous condition variations seen in this stainless steel alloy.
