APPLICATIONS FOR MITSUBISHI ALLOY 6B

Alloy 6B (Annealed)

This is the most widely used heat treat condition, since the formability is important in fabrication of wear components.
Applications are:

• Steam Turbine Erosion Shields
• High Temperature Bearings
• Valve Stems
• Needle Valves
• Hot Extrusion Dies
• Nozzles
• Extruder Screws
• Chain Saw Guide Bars
• Furnace Fan Blades
• Food Processing Equipment
• Centrifuge Liners
• Forming Dies
• Miscellaneous Wear Surfaces

Alloy 6B-H (Hot-worked, age-hardened)

The direct age-hardening after hot rolling provides the maximum hardness and wear resistance although ductility is reduced to preclude cold forming.
Applications are:

• Saw Blades
• Scraper Blades
• Knife Blades
• Chippers
• Shredders
• Other cutting edge components
