304 Stainless Steel per AMS 5911
304 Stainless Steel Sheet in the ½ Hard (Half Hard) condition, which is produced through controlled cold working, is specified in AMS 5911. This condition provides the necessary balance of hardness and ductility for the material, making it suitable for a variety of applications including aerospace, industrial, and structural components.
Product Forms & Size Range of AMS 5911
304 Stainless Steel per AMS 5911 in the 1/2 Hard Temper Sheet Thicknesses range from 0.0010″ to .1250″ Thick.
Comparison of AMS 5911 to Other 304 Tempers
- AMS 5511 – Solution Treated / Annealed (softest, maximum formability)
- AMS 5910 – ¼ Hard (moderate strength, good ductility)
- AMS 5911 – ½ Hard (higher strength, reduced ductility)
- AMS 5912 – ¾ Hard (high strength, limited forming)
- AMS 5913 – Full Hard (maximum strength, minimal ductility)
