AMS 5764
AMS 5764 includes Nitronic 50 stainless steel in bars, wire, forging, extrusions, and ring forms. This material provides excellent corrosion resistance, but its high strength, long life, and corrosion resistance are improved even more with its high nitrogen, austenitic content, which provides a better alternative to common 300 series stainless steel, such as 316L.
A great advantage of this alloy, as specified in the AMS 5764 standard, is its ability to cold work, which provides much higher strength compared to common austenitic stainless steel, while retaining toughness and ductility. This provides a great alternative for marine, aerospace, and other applications where corrosion resistance, along with mechanical properties, are required.
Applications of AMS 5764
Due to its high strength and exceptional corrosion resistance, AMS 5764 Nitronic 50 is widely used in demanding environments such as:
- Marine shafts and propulsion components
- Pump shafts and seawater handling equipment
- Aerospace structural components
- Chemical processing equipment
- Industrial fasteners, valves, and shafts
What is Nitronic 50 ?
Nitronic 50 is a high nitrogen austenitic stainless steel melted as AOD melt type with higher strength and corrosion levels than 316L stainless. This alloy has excellent corrosion resistance and can be cold worked to much higher strengths than standard 300 series austenitics. It is often used in seawater applications such as boat shafts and pump shafts.
