Form

This specification covers a corrosion-resistant steel in the form of plate up to 3.00 inches (76.2 mm), inclusive, in nominal thickness.

Application

This plate has been used typically for parts requiring corrosion resistance, stress-corrosion resistance, high strength up to 600 °F (315 °C), and good ductility and strength in the transverse direction in thick sections, nut usage is not limited to such applications.

Certain design and processing procedures may cause this plate to become susceptible to stress-corrosion cracking; ARP1110 recommends practices to minimize such conditions.
