Machinability (Rating 20) Less suitable It is in a large extend resistant to pitting corrosion. Even in
seawater the laminar attack is higher than localized
Electroplating Properties Excellent corrosion.
Hot Tinning Properties Excellent Largely insensitive to stress corrosion cracking
Soft soldering, Brazing Excellent * For more details call our technical service
Resistance Welding Good
The fatigue strength gives an indication about the resistance to variations in applied tension. It is measured under symmetrical
alternating load. The maximum bending load for 107 load cycles without crack is measured. Dependent on the temper class it is
approximately 1/3 of the tensile strength Rm.
