ATLAS SPECIALTY METALS – PRODUCT REFERENCE MANUAL
SECTION 1: INTRODUCTION
Introduction
Welcome to Atlas Specialty Metals, the leading stockist and distributor of
stainless and special metals for Australia and New Zealand.
This Reference Manual provides information on the range and grades of 1

stainless and special metals we distribute. It also contains general technical S1
information that may be of interest to users and outlines the processing

facilities and services provided to our customers.
Atlas Specialty Metals The Company
In 1918 Atlas Steels began the manufacturing of tool steels in Canada and by 1938 was
the major producer of tool and specialty steels in the country. In the years since 1918
many of the businesses that Atlas started world wide have been absorbed into other
companies and today the only one still remaining and maintaining the Atlas name in the
specialty metals industry is Atlas Group Holdings Limited which evolved from the
Canadian parent when they established operations in Australia in 1939.
The Distribution business of Atlas Steels changed its trading name to Atlas Specialty
Metals in 2003 to more reflect the nature of the products now being marketed.
In many respects the Atlas of today with operations in Australia, New Zealand, Indonesia
and Thailand remains true to the vision of its forefathers and still retains its focus and
strength in specialty metals but with a larger products base in stainless steels, alloy
steels, aluminium and carbon steels in specialised applications.
The Atlas of today is a fully owned Australian public company, with a distribution
warehousing and metals processing network that encompasses more than 20 major
cities and towns across Australia, New Zealand and South East Asia.

SECTION 1: INTRODUCTION – STAINLESS AND SPECIAL METALS
The grades and properties of

stainless steel
Introduction
The group of alloys which today make up the family of stainless steels had their
beginnings in 1913 in Sheffield, England. Harry Brearley was testing a number of alloys 3
for possible gun barrel steels and observed that samples cut from one of these trial S1
heats did not rust. Upon investigation it was shown to contain 13% chromium and
this discovery lead to the development of stainless for use in cutlery, for which Sheffield
became famous. Coincidentally, at about the same time, development work was also
being carried out in France and Germany, which resulted in the production of the first
austenitic stainless steel.
The families of stainless steel
Stainless steels are iron-based alloys containing a minimum of about 10.5% chromium.
The chromium forms a protective self-healing oxide film, which is the reason why this
group of steels has its characteristic ‘stainlessness’ or corrosion resistance. The ability
of the oxide layer to heal itself means that the steel is corrosion-resistant, no matter
how much of the surface is removed.
Although all stainless steels depend on the presence of chromium, other alloying
elements are often added to enhance their properties. The categorisation of stainless
steels is unusual amongst metals in that it is based upon the nature of their metallurgical
structure. Depending on the exact chemical composition of the steel the microstructure
may be made up of the stable phases of austenite or ferrite, a ‘duplex’ mix of these two,
the phase martensite created when some steels are rapidly quenched from a high
temperature, or a structure hardened by precipitated micro-constituents.
The broader group of stainless steels can be viewed by comparison to the more familiar
plain carbon ‘mild’ steels as having the following general characteristics:
• higher work hardening rate;
• higher ductility;
• higher strength and hardness;
• higher hot strength;
• higher corrosion resistance;
• higher cryogenic toughness; and
• lower magnetic response (for austenitic only).
These properties apply particularly to the austenitic grades and to varying degrees to
other grades.

Austenitic stainless steels

This group contains at least 16% chromium and 6% nickel (the basic grade 304 is
referred to as 18/8) and range through to the high alloys or ‘super austenitics’ such as
904L and 6% molybdenum grades.
Additional elements can be added such as molybdenum, titanium or copper, to modify

or improve stainless properties, and making them suitable for many critical applications
involving high temperature as well as corrosion resistance. This group of stainless steels
4
is also suitable for cryogenic applications because the effect of the nickel content in
S1
making the steel austenitic avoids the problems of brittleness at low temperatures,
which is a characteristic of other types of steel.
The characteristics of the austenitic stainless steels are:
• good corrosion resistance;
• weldable using standard methods and equipment;
• excellent ductility;
• stable austenite structure at all temperatures;
• cannot be hardened by heat treatment;
• harden rapidly when cold worked;
• good strength and scaling resistance at high temperatures;
• excellent cryogenic properties; and
• non-magnetic when annealed.
Ferritic stainless steels

These are plain chromium (10.5 to 30%) grades such as grade 430 and 409 and the
new DurinoxTM F20S, the new alternative to 304. Their moderate corrosion resistance is
improved in the higher alloyed grades (such as 444) and poor fabrication properties
improved in the proprietary grade 3CR12.
The characteristics of the ferritic grades are:
• good resistance to corrosion, but generally not as good as the austenitics;
• not as readily welded as austenitics;
• good ductility;
• cannot be hardened by heat treatment;
• can only be moderately hardened by cold work;
• fully magnetic;
• not suitable for use at very low temperatures;
• stable ferrite structure at all temperatures; and
• immune from chloride stress corrosion cracking.

Martensitic stainless steels
Martensitic stainless steels are also based on the addition of chromium as the major
alloying element but with a higher carbon and generally lower chromium content than
the ferritic type, e.g. 12% in grades 410 and 416. Grade 431 has a chromium content
of about 16% but its microstructure is still martensite despite the chromium level due
to the addition of 2% nickel in the composition. The martensitic grades are used in the
hardened condition for high strength applications (eg pump shafts) and high hardness
applications (eg knife blades). 5
S1
The characteristics of martensitic stainless steels are:
• hardenable by heat treatment (quenching and tempering);
• magnetic; and
• have moderate corrosion resistance.
Precipitation hardening stainless steels
These are chromium and nickel containing steels, which can develop very high tensile
strengths. The most common grade in this group is ‘17-4PH’, also known as grade 630, with
the composition of 17% chromium, 4% nickel, 4% copper and 0.3% niobium. The major
advantage of these steels is that they can be supplied in the solution-treated condition, which
is machinable. Following machining, forming, etc. the steel can be hardened by a single, fairly
low temperature ‘aging’ heat treatment which does not cause distortion to the component.
The most common applications are shafts and spindles.
The characteristics of the precipitation hardening steels are:
• hardenable by heat treatment (solution treatment and ageing);
• magnetic; and
• have moderate corrosion resistance.
Duplex stainless steels
Duplex stainless steels such as 2205 (designation indicates 22% chromium and 5%
nickel but also contains 3% molybdenum and 0.15% nitrogen) have microstructures
comprising a mixture of austenite and ferrite.
Duplex austenitic-ferritic steels combine some of the characteristics of each class.
• Resistant to stress corrosion cracking, albeit not quite as resistant as ferritic grades.
• Toughness is superior to ferritics but inferior to that of austenitics.
• Strength is greater than that of the annealed austenitic steels by a factor of two.
• General corrosion resistance equal to or better than 316.
• In general their pitting resistance is superior to 316.
• They do suffer from reduced toughness below -50ºC and after exposure above
300ºC, so are only used between these temperatures.
• Highly resistant to choloride stress corrosion cracking.

Standard classifications
There are many different grades of stainless steel and the American Iron and Steel
Institute (AISI) in the past designated some as standard compositions, resulting in the
commonly used three-digit numbering system, e.g. 304, 316, etc. This role has now
been taken over by the SAE and ASTM who allocate UNS numbers to new grades.
The full range of these standard stainless steel grades is contained in the Iron and Steel
6
S1
Society (ISS) Steel Products Manual for Stainless Steels and in the SAE/ASTM handbook
of Unified Numbering Systems.
Although the majority of stainless steel products sold in Australia and New Zealand
are supplied to American ASTM specifications, we see some references to European
“Euronorms”. These use different grade designations, both numbers and names.
ASTM Grade 304 304L 316 316L 430 2205
UNS No. S30400 S30403 S31600 S31603 S43000 S31803
EN No. 1.4301 1.4306 1.4401 1.4404 1.4016 1.4462
EN Name X5CrNi18010 X2CrNi19-11 X5CrNiMo17-12-2 X2CrNiMo17-12-2 X6Cr17 X2CrNiMoN22-5-3
Certain other grades do not have standard numbers but instead are covered by other
national and international specifications for specialised products.

final skin pass rolled. to 8mm.
Stainless steel flat products from coil
The internationally recognised crossover thickness between what is referred to as sheet

and plate is 5.0mm. This is specified in ASTM A480M.
Therefore, sheet is thickness less than 5.0mm and plate is 5.0mm and over.
It is common practice for large stainless steel coils to be brought into Australia and
processed by a specialty metals service centre into smaller coils, sheet, strip and plate.
Product over 12mm is brought into Australia as plate only.
The range of stock of stainless steel flat products produced from large coil is limited to
mill production constraints in thickness, width and grade and the processing equipment
at the coil service centre.

Stainless steel coil plate – ASTM A240M
The most efficient route for a stainless steel production mill to produce plate
(5mm and over) is in coil form. The coil is then further downstream processed
by the mill or through a service centre with equipment to flatten
(often called ‘levelling’) and cut to length.
The maximum plate width produced by mills from coil is 2000mm and the maximum
thickness is 13mm for hot rolled and 8mm for cold rolled.
Atlas, through the AMP coil service centre, has the capability to process large stainless
steel coils in thickness up to 6mm (8mm for aluminium) and in widths to 2000mm.
This enables an extensive range of cold and hot rolled coils to be held with the flexibility
to convert into small coils, sheet, strip and plate in standard and customised lengths.

Coil plate is commonly stocked in dual certified grade, i.e. 304/304L and 316/316L.
Stainless steel quarto plate products – ASTM A240M
Another method of producing stainless steel plate within and beyond the thickness
range of coil production is from a slab of steel that is rolled in the flat condition to a
specified length, width and thickness. The product of this process is commonly referred
to as quarto plate and is available from mills in thickness from 5mm and above and
widths to 4000mm in some thicknesses.
The standard grades and thickness for quarto plate are as follows:

Ferritic compared to Duplex stainless steel
Duplex grades have compositions balanced to give a structure of about
50% ferrite and 50% austenite and therefore have some properties that
are mid-way between the two types. Their thermal expansion for instance
is between that of the ferritic and austenitic grades, and their resistance to
stress corrosion cracking is higher than that of an austenitic but not quite
as good as for the ferritic. The duplex grades do however tend to have
higher strengths than either of the other types. As for all stainless steel

Surface finish – appearance
The surface finishes for ferritic grades of stainless steel are generally similar to those of austenitic and other grades.
If anything, ferritic grades tend to be brighter and more reflective compared to an austenitic grade of the same nominal
finish.

Formability (eg deep drawing or bending)

Cold forming operations change the shape of strip or sheet product by
subjecting it to plastic strain. The forming operation involves complex tensile
and compressive loading, using a combination of stretching and deep
drawing performance.
Although the overall drawing capacity of austenitic grades is better than that
of ferritic, some ferritic grades show excellent drawing performance and
display higher LDR (Limiting Drawing Ratio) to austenitic. Ferritic grades are
inferior to austenitic in pure stretch forming.
In practice, industrial forming operations usually involve a combination of
both pure drawing and pure stretch deformation. Design, construction and
fabrication parameters and the material properties of the ferritic grade
concerned must be considered together, in order to get the best out of the
drawing process.
The following chart is a great reference to the forming properties of the main
steel groups.

Cost
Ferritic grades of stainless steel are generally much lower in cost that the alternative
austenitic grade. However, other factors beside price, such as familiarity with existing
product, specification by a design engineer, asset owner’s product preference, also
contribute to the decision of selecting an appropriate steel for a product application. We
therefore encourage our customers to seek the assistance of Atlas sales and technical
staff who can provide support in evaluating the best specialty metals solution possible to
suit a product application.

SECTION 4: STAINLESS STEEL PIPE AND FITTINGS
Stainless steel pipe and fittings

A stainless steel pipe system is the product of choice for carrying corrosive
or sanitary fluids, slurries and gases, particularly where high pressures,
high temperatures or corrosive environments are involved. Due to stainless
steel’s aesthetic properties, stainless steel pipe also used extensively in
architectural applications.
Stainless steel pipe can be generally defined as a heavy wall thickness tubing,
with dimensions as specified by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).
Pipe dimensions are specified by outside diameter – indicated by the NPS (imperial) or
DN (metric) designator and sometimes referred to as the ‘nominal bore’– and wall
thickness, reflected in the schedule number. ASME B36.19 covers these dimensions.
Stainless steel pipe and fittings are supplied in the annealed condition to facilitate
fabrication and ensure best corrosion resistance. Atlas Specialty Metals can also supply
stainless steel pipe with an abrasive polished finish suitable for architectural applications.
Welded pipe
Welded stainless steel pipe is manufactured from 2B or HRAP stainless steel strip –
formed (to shape) and longitudinally welded to completed pipe.
All welds are made without the addition of filler metal, except for very large diameters.
Standard welded pipe is in nominal lengths of 6.0 or 6.1 metres.
Manufacturing specification: ASTM A312M – Austenitic.

ASTM A358M – Austenitic (large diameter).
ASTM A790M – Duplex.
Seamless pipe
Seamless stainless steel pipe is produced from hollow billets, which are pierced then
drawn across dies until they reach the final desired pipe size.
Standard seamless pipe is supplied in nominal lengths of 6.1 metres to 150mm (6”) and 1
above this in random lengths. S4
Manufacturing specification: ASTM A312M – Austenitic.

ASTM A790M – Duplex.

Stainless steel piping systems can be joined by butt welding and, in the heavier
40S and 80S schedules, by threaded connections.
The complete piping systems is made possible using complementary fittings and flanges.
These are specified by the same DN or NPS designator and schedule numbering system
as for pipe.
Butt welding pipe fittings
A piping system using butt welding fittings has many inherent advantages over
other forms.
2 • Welding a fitting to the pipe means that it is permanently leakproof.

S2
• The continuous metal structure formed between pipe and fitting adds
strength to the system.
• Smooth inner surface and gradual direction changes reduce pressure losses
and turbulence and minimise the action of corrosion and erosion.
• A welded system utilises a minimum of space.
Atlas Specialty Metals supply butt welding fittings in the following forms.
• Elbows 45˚ and 90˚ – long radius and short radius.
• Return bends 180˚ – long radius and short radius.
• Reducers – concentric and eccentric.
• Tees – equal and reducing.
• Caps.
• Stub ends – Type B, to MSS SP-43.
Butt welding fittings can be supplied in either seamless or welded construction

and are covered by specification ASTM A403M (or ASTM A815M for Duplex grades).
2
S4

Screwed and socket weld fittings
Piping systems can be connected using screwed fittings – BSP threaded (“150lb”)
low pressure fittings and NPT threaded (class 3000) high pressure fittings in Grade 304 or 316.
Socket weld fittings are used in high pressure piping systems and are available in grade
316L to suit schedule 80S wall thickness piping.
Manufacturing specification: ASTM A182M (Class 3000 NPT and socket weld).
ASTM A351 (BSP castings).
ANSI B16.3 (BSP dimensions).
ISO 4144 (BSP dimensions)
Pipe flanges
A flange is a ring of steel (forged, cut from plate, or rolled) designed to connect sections
of pipe, or to join pipe to a pressure vessel, valve, pump or other integral flanged assembly.
Flanges are joined to each other by bolting, and are joined to the piping system by
welding or threading (or loose when stub ends are used).
The basic types of flanges are:
• slip-on • socket weld

• blind • lap joint
• weld neck • orifice
• threaded
Forged stainless steel flanges are designed to the following common pressure ratings:
Classes 150, 300, 600, 900, 1500 and 2500. Standard sealing face is Raised Face (RF).
Manufacturing specification: ASTM A182M.
Plate stainless steel flanges are cut and machined from plate – Table ‘D’, Table ‘E’, etc.
Manufacturing specification: AS2129.
Types and applications of flanges
Slip-on flanges. The flange is slipped over the pipe and then welded both inside and
outside to provide sufficient strength and prevent leakage. Slip-on flanges are also used 3
S4
as loose back-up flanges when stub ends are used.
Blind flanges. This is a flange without a centre bore, used to shut off a piping system
or vessel opening.
Weld neck flanges. Designed to be joined to a piping system by butt welding.

They are relatively expensive due to the weld neck, but are preferred for high-stress
applications.
Lap joint flanges. This is again similar to a slip-on flange, but has a radius at the

SECTION 5: STAINLESS STEEL TUBE AND FITTINGS
Stainless steel tube and fittings

Stainless steel tube is typically specified as OD (outside diameter) and WT
(wall thickness) and mechanical properties of the base stainless steel material.
It is resistant to many forms of corrosion, has hygienic sterile properties, high
quality aesthetic appeal and exceptional strength.
Tube is manufactured in round, square and rectangular sections in a variety of wall

thicknesses and usually by the processes of longitudinal welding, hot and cold drawing
(seamless) or spiral welding.
Finishes or appearance range from unpolished to highly polished. Unpolished has a

2B mill finish, standard polished is a finely grit polished finish and there is a finer buffed
finish giving close to a mirror appearance. Finishes are selected to suit application and
aesthetic appeal.
Stainless steel tube can be joined by welding, which facilitates rigidity in construction,
or by the use of mechanical fittings which enables dismantling for hygienic cleaning.
Tube is usually annealed if extensive forming and bending is required, such as for
bending or expanding. The tubular products system incorporates a comprehensive range
of stainless steel fittings in the form of elbows, tees, reducers and flanges in various
sizes, wall thickness, grades and finishes to suit tube dimensions and tolerances.
As-welded (AW) tube

This tubing is produced direct off the continuous tube welding mill, using cold rolled
stainless steel strip made to ASTM standards, with tube produced to commercial limits
of straightness in standard or specific customer lengths.
AW tube has a higher yield point than annealed tube and is generally used for
decorative applications or in mildly corrosive conditions. It is not suitable for applications
requiring significant flaring, expanding or bending.
Manufacturing specification: ASTM A554.

As-welded food quality tube is stocked by Atlas Specialty Metals. This tube at the point of
manufacture goes through a process where the internal weld bead is rolled. The result is an
improved internal finish along the weld, reducing the chance of a crevice where liquid or food
product may be trapped. This assists with ‘clean in place’ (CIP) environment food and beverage
process lines or other applications such as the pharmaceutical industry. Further assurance of
reliability of food tube comes from the 100% weld NDT mandatory for this product.
Manufacturing specification: AS 1528.
As-welded annealed (AWA) tube

This tube is produced by the same process as AW tube but is annealed to relieve stresses
and improve ductility. Bright annealing is carried out in a controlled-atmosphere furnace,
so that no oxide or scale is formed on the surface.
Annealing both increases the corrosion resistance and softens the tube which allows
1
severe manipulation such as bending, expanding and forming.
S5
Manufacturing specification: ASTM A269/ASTM A268 for Ferritic and Martensitic tubes.

Cold worked annealed (CWA) tube
This tube is typically destined for heat exchanger applications and is produced in
a similar way to AWA product except that the internal bead is rolled flush with
the inside tube surface prior to annealing.
Cold drawn welded (CDW) and cold drawn welded annealed (CDWA) tube
Through cold drawing tube in the AW and AWA conditions, fine dimensional tolerances
are achieved, with excellent uniformity of wall thickness and concentricity, grain
structure and hardness.
The tube is produced by drawing through a hardened steel or tungsten carbide die,
at room temperature. The purpose of cold drawing is to reduce the OD or wall or both,
to produce a smooth surface finish and to break up the weld structure, which results
in recrystallisation when annealed.
Cold drawn seamless (CDS) tube
This tube is produced by drawing from hollow billets. It is usually supplied in the
annealed and pickled condition and used where service conditions involve high pressure
and corrosive conditions and where good surface finish and close tolerances are
required, e.g. heat exchanger and condenser tubing, instrumentation tubing and some
refinery applications.
Manufacturing specification: ASTM A269 for general service. ASTM A213M for heat
exchanger service and A268 for Ferritic and Martensitic tubes.
Spiral welded tube
This tube is produced by the helical forming and automatic welding of a continuous strip
of stainless steel.
Typical applications include water and pulp in paper mills, product and effluent lines in
chemical processing, water lines for brewing, dust fume extraction, furnace and boiler
flues, stormwater down-pipes in high-rise applications and ventilation ducts and
condensation lines for airconditioning.
Manufacturing specification: generally to ASTM A778, except for mechanical

properties.

Tube fittings
Complementing our stock of round tube is a range of tube fittings. The more common
tube fittings include bends (45, 90 and 180 degree), tees, reducing tees, eccentric and
concentric reducers, BSM unions and tube clamps.
Tube bends – Bends are generally stocked as 45, 90 or 180 degree. Three common
manufacturing processes are pulled bends (cold drawn bend), pressed bends and lobster
back bends. The process of manufacturing often relates to the diameter of the bend and
the thickness of material used. Up to and including 152.4mm the bends are generally
pulled, by far the most commonly supplied bends. Pressed bends can be from 101.6 to
305mm OD. Lobster back bends are generally supplied in diameters 101.6mm and
above and these bends are used generally to suit spiral welded tube.
To maintain a level of quality and consistency Atlas stocks pulled bends with an
extended leg. The importance of this style of bend ensures each end of the bend is
finished off true and accurate. The extended leg gives the ability to maintain the original
circularity of the tube and a precise 45 or 90 degree radius measured from across the
end face of the bends.
45 degree 90 degree 180 degree
Tees – Two common processes of manufacturing are welded or pulled tees. To maintain
product quality and consistency welded tees are stocked as opposed to pulled tees.
Tees are stocked in two forms; equal or reducing. An equal tee has all three branches of
the tee equal in diameter. A reducing tee has a reduced diameter of tube on the branch
section of the tee.
Equal tee Reducing tee
As tube fittings are often used in the food industry and hygiene is important many of
these fittings are stocked in a polished finish.

BSM unions
British Standard Milk (BSM) stainless steel unions were designed specifically for tube
installation in the dairy industry, but they are now commonly used in food and beverage
processing and the pharmaceutical industries where crevice-free hygienic conditions are
required. A commonly used term is ‘CIP’ which comes from the phrase Clean In Place.
Liner RJT (Ring Joint Type) – often referred to as a standard union comprises an
Nut ‘O’ ring style gasket. This leaves a small crevice internally where the liner
and male part of the union overlap, this is not suitable for permanent CIP.
Male Part
Gasket
Liner CIP (Australian style) – developed from a RJT union, features a gasket
Nut giving the desirable characteristics for CIP installation. The gasket fills the
crevice between the liner and male part of the union.
Male Part
Gasket
Liner CIPFF – the FF stands for ‘Flat Face’ and refers to a BSM modified
Nut supporting CIP installations. The gasket is moulded completely filling the
crevice between the liner and male part and allows a small lip to give a
flush finish on the ID of the fitting. The liner and male parts of this union
have been modified creating a flat face style sealed with a flat face gasket.
Male Part A flat faced liner and male part used in a CIPFF union are shaped differently
Gasket
to that used in an RJT or CIP union.
Note: Temperature rating of EPDM “E” gasket material is -51ºC to 148ºC.

Common stainless steel bar specifications

ASTM A276: This specification covers hot or cold finished bar except bars for reforging (see spec. A314).
Includes rounds, squares, hexagons, hot rolled or extruded shapes such as angles, flats,
channels and commonly used grades of stainless steel, including ‘improved machining’.
Free machining grades such as 303 and 416 are not included (see spec. A582/A582M).
ASTM A479M: This specification covers the same sections as ASTM A276, for use in pressure vessel
construction. Also referred to in ASME boiler and pressure vessel code.
ASTM A582M: This specification covers hot or cold finished free-machining stainless steel bar except bars for
forging (see spec. A314). Includes rounds, squares and hexagons in the more commonly used
types of stainless steels designed for optimum machinability and general corrosion and high
temperature service, primarily grades 303 and 416. Stainless steel bars other than the
free-machining types are covered in other specifications.
ASTM A314: This specification covers stainless steel billets and bars intended only for forging.
ASTM A484M: This specification covers general requirements that apply to stainless steel wrought bars, shapes,
forgings and billets or other semi-finished material (except wire) for forging, under the latest
revision of each ASTM specification.
Ugima / improved machining bar

Atlas Specialty Metals distributes Ugima and Valima brands of “Improved
Machinability” stainless steel bar. Ugima and Valima are trade names for improved
machinability stainless steel developed by Ugitech of France. Improved machining bar
results from a controlled melting process, giving high chip-breaking properties and
providing a self-lubricating quality through the processing of machining.
Stock ranges • Ugima 303, 304/304L and 316/316L round bar, 4.76 to 101.6mm.
• Ugima 316/316L round bar, 101.6 to 304.8mm.
• Ugima 303 and 316/316L hex bar, 13.34 to 57.15mm.
• Valima 316L – hollow bar.

The benefits • Improved machinability. • Chemical composition within ASTM standards. S7
• Increased cutting speeds. • Properties the same as commercial grades of

stainless steel
• Lower unit cost of production.
– corrosion resistance
• Increased tool life. – mechanical properties
– weldability
• Lower production power – formability.
requirements.
• Improved drilling and tapping characteristics.
• Consistent machinability.
• Improved product surface finish.
Ugima will reduce wear on tools and extend tool life

Highly abrasive inclusions which damage tools are excluded in the Ugima
manufacturing steel melt process.
There is a decrease in flank wear and crater wear of carbide tooling which results in:
• less dismounting and reassembling of tools;
• less adjustment time; and
• a noticeable improvement in the life of cutting tools.

SECTION 8: ENGINEERING BAR: BRIGHT AND MILD STEEL BAR
Bright mild steel bar

Refer to the “Atlas Specialty Metals – Technical Handbook of Bar Products”,
for more details on specifications, dimensions and technical data.
Bright steel bars are carbon steel which has had the surface condition
improved over the hot rolled finish supplied by the steel mill. Advantages
achieved include improved machinability, enhancement of physical and
mechanical properties and improved dimensional tolerances and straightness.
Cold finished steels are covered by Australian Standard AS1443 or similar overseas
alternatives.
Types of cold finished bars
Cold drawn bars are widely used in mass production of parts due to their excellent
mechanical and dimensional properties, with machinability in excess of the hot rolled
condition. Round, hexagonal and square bars can be produced by cold drawing.
Turned and polished round bars have similar mechanical properties to those of
equivalent hot rolled bar, but exhibit a smooth, bright surface finish and improved
dimensional accuracy. They are widely used where a surface free of decarburisation is
required, for example in induction hardening and when the surface must be free from
surface defects, such as for use in cold forming.
Cold drawn and precision ground or turned and precision ground round bars, 1
where very close dimensional tolerances and finishes are required, e.g. plating. S8
Cold rolled sizes up to 100mm wide and 7mm thick inclusive are produced by cold
rolling to produce flat and some special shape sections to suitable tolerances and
surface finishes.

SECTION 8: ENGINEERING BAR: ALLOY CONSTRUCTIONAL AND CASE HARDENING STEEL BAR
Alloy constructional and

case hardening steel bar
for more detail on specifications, dimensions and technical data.
Low alloy steels

For applications requiring higher tensile strengths and toughness than the carbon
steels there is a range of low alloy steels. These are categorised as high tensile or
constructional steels and case hardening steels. The high tensile strength steels have
sufficient alloying additions enabling through hardening (by quench and temper
treatment) according to their alloying additions.
Case hardening (carburising) steels

Case hardening steels are a group of alloy steels in which a high hardness
surface zone (hence the term ‘case hardened’) is developed during heat treatment by
absorption and diffusion of carbon. The high hardness zone is supported by the
unaffected underlying core zone, which is lower hardness and higher toughness.
Plain carbon steels that can be used for case hardening are restricted. Where plain
carbon steels are used, the rapid quenching necessary to develop satisfactory hardness
within the case can cause distortion and the strength that can be developed in the core
is very limited. Alloy case hardening steels allow the flexibility of slower quenching
methods to minimise distortion and high core strengths can be developed.
Nitriding steels 13
S8
Nitriding steels can have higher surface hardness developed by absorption of nitrogen,
when exposed to a nitriding atmosphere at temperatures in the range of 510-530ºC,
after hardening and tempering.
High tensile steels suitable for nitriding are: 4130, 4140, X4150, 4340, En25, En26.

SECTION 8: ENGINEERING BAR: CHROME BAR
Chrome bar
Hard chrome bar is a chromium-plated steel product used primarily as piston
rod material in all standard applications in hydraulics and pneumatics. Common
applications are found in cranes, dump trucks, lifters, garbage compactors,
agricultural machinery and production equipment with movable sections.
Because hard chrome bar is normally used in conditions of high stress, friction and
harsh climatic environment, the quality of the base metal and surface treatment are
of paramount importance. Wear, impact and corrosion resistance, as well as high yield
strength, surface smoothness and uniform quality are most important properties of hard
chrome bar.
The product under the brand Marcrome is manufactured by Onesteel Martin Bright.
Marcrome specification
The basic grades of steel used in the manufacture of Marcrome are 1045, 4140
hardened and tempered and 1045 induction hardened.
Grade 1045 steel bar is primarily used in hard chrome bar manufacture due to its
wide range of properties consistent with end use applications. Grade 4140 is used in
applications where greater yield strength is required and induction hardened grade 1045
is used in applications requiring greater surface impact resistance.

SECTION 8: ENGINEERING BAR: CARBON HOLLOW BAR
Carbon hollow bar

Hollow bar, otherwise known as seamless mechanical tubing, is a tubular
product made with characteristics and properties suitable for subsequent
transformation into a great variety of hollow products and cylindrical
components for general engineering purposes. Carbon and alloy steel hollow
bars are normally supplied as circular sections although other shapes are
available.
Selection of the most suitable raw material for production of circular hollow components,
whether the component is a plain bush or a complex precision part, should take into
consideration the advantages in using hollow bar as feedstock. It is important to remember
when comparing hollow bar and solid bar that the raw material cost is dependent on the
length of material used to produce the component. Since the purchase price of raw
material is based on weight, the price per length is an important factor.
Hollow bar is preferred by many users because of significant savings on raw material
cost and machining time. In many instances it is possible to choose a hollow bar
with outside diameter and wall thickness very close to the finished dimensions of the
component to be manufactured. The need for preliminary operations such as turning
and boring is therefore substantially reduced or eliminated. Benefits are gained from
reduction in setting-up time and machine cycle times, lower labour and overhead
costs for each component, reduced tool costs, lower lubricant usage and machinery
maintenance costs. Swarf handling problems are also simplified.
Carbon steel hollow bar

22 Products are sourced under internationally recognised specifications including
S8 ASTM A519M and ISO2938, as well as a variety of proprietary grades which comply
with the requirements of appropriate specifications.
The typical grades of carbon steel hollow bar stocked by Atlas Steels are:
• VM312, Grade 147M

• 20Mn V6
• TIM V6
• ST52
Seamless carbon steel hollow bar is normally supplied in the as-rolled condition and is
suitable for a wide range of thermal treatments such as normalising, surface hardening
and hardening and tempering.
Low alloy steel hollow bar
Atlas Specialty Metals can supply both 4140 and 4340 grades of alloy steel hollow bar,
compliant with ASTM A519M or equivalent specification and supplied in various
conditions, usually hardened and tempered, but also annealed or as-rolled conditions
subject to the specific application.
Further enquiries should be made on any specific requirements.

SECTION 9: ALUMINIUM
Aluminium
Advantages of using Aluminium
• Light weight – approximately 1/3 the density of steel.
• Strength – some alloys can be substantially strengthened by work or by heat treatment.
• Workability – easy formability, machinability and readily welded.
• Corrosion resistance – varies depending on the alloy; the best resist marine exposure.
• Non-toxic – often used in contact with food.
• Non-magnetic and non-sparking.
• Electrical conductivity.
• Thermal conductivity – high.
• Reflectivity – bright finish options available.
Specification
Generally in accordance with the specifications as outlined in the manual Aluminium

Standards, Data and Design published by The Aluminium Council of Australia (Ltd).
Aluminium is identifiable by alloy and temper, which indicates chemical and mechanical
properties. This assists with possible applications for the product.

Code Description
H111 Strain hardened less than the amount required for a controlled H11 temper.
H112 No special control over amount of strain hardening. Some minimum strength limits set.
H321 Strain hardened less than amount required for a controlled H32 temper.
H116 Acceptable resistance to stress, cracking and exfoliation attack. Strain hardened less then amount
required for a controlled H32 temper.
H321/H116 Plate can be supplied with a dual temper from select mills.
H32 Strain hardened by rolling and then stabilising heat treatment to 1/4 hard.
Note: Plate tempers generally restricted to 1/2 hard maximum owing to heavy gauge – cannot get sufficient cold work for higher tempers.
Plate standards
Standard Description
ASTM B928 Typically a marine standard requiring exfoliation corrosion testing but also inter-granular resistance.
Material for marine application is typically ordered as tempers H116 and/or H321 and possibly
referenced to an international recognised testing authority. All material to this standard is line
marked with manufacturing traceability.
ASTM B209 A non-marine application where additional corrosion testing is not required. This is typically applied
to plate for the transport industry where surface finish and bright levels are critical. Material is
ordered to a standard “H” temper i.e. H32, which mechanical properties are very similar to H321.
The material does not require identification line marking from the manufacturer.
DNV/Lloyds Plate for marine applications can be supplied with testing certified by Det Norske Veritas (DNV).

The radii listed are the minimum recommended for bending sheets and plates without fracturing in a standard press break with air bend dies. other types
of bending operations may require larger radii or permit smaller radii. The minimum permissible radii will also vary with the design and condition of
tooling.

The H112 temper (applicable to non-heat treatable alloys) is supplied in the as-fabricate condition without special property control, but usually can be
formed over radii applicable to the H14 (or H34) temper or smaller.

PREVENTING CORROSION IN CONCRETE STRUCTURES & INDUSTRIAL APPLICATIONS

Reinforcement
Reasons for Specifying Durinox Stainless Steel Reinforcing Products:

• Stainless steel has excellent corrosion resistance and with the appropriate grade selection
is highly resistant to chloride and carbonate attack in very aggressive environments.
• Concrete is a “sponge”. Stainless steel reinforcing bar provides a solution to problems
associated with chloride induced corrosion in reinforced concrete structures, particularly
in aggressive environments, such as sea water, where early deterioration of carbon steel
is a serious problem.
• The durability of stainless steel is attractive to asset owners who often look at the
“triple bottom line” (environment, social and financial) when assessing the overall
cost of a structure.
• The enhanced performance of stainless steel can reduce the maintenance and repair costs
of a comparable carbon steel reinforced structure.
• Using stainless steel to repair a carbon steel reinforced concrete structure will retard the
“corrosion motor” and extend the asset life. Stainless steel reinforcing can be used in the
critical corrosion zones of carbon steel reinforced structures and extend the asset life
without fear of galvanic corrosion if designed correctly. Joining between stainless and
carbon steel can be achieved with couplers or lapping.
• Stainless steel is a cost effective option in a structure that has difficult future access for
repair or maintenance.
• Austenitic stainless steels have low magnetic permeability and are suited to
applications where disturbing strong magnetic fields need to be avoided such as
housings for electronic equipment, transformer bases, medical buildings and airports.
• Austenitic stainless steel retains ductility to temperatures below -196ºC making it suitable
for reinforcement of containment systems for LNG and Liquid Oxygen.
• Stainless steel has low thermal conductivity and high strength at elevated temperatures
giving it superior fire and heat resistance qualities compared to standard mild steel.
• Stainless steels are easy to handle, manipulate and weld and can withstand damage
and abrasion during installation when compared with galvanised and coated steels.
• The use of stainless steel reinforcement requires minimal, if any, maintenance. The cost
of repeat inspections; traffic interruption for engineering work etc, is virtually eliminated.
• Stainless steel’s mechanical strength and corrosion resistance may allow a reduction in the
thickness of concrete, which can considerably lighten the weight of a structure and
provide construction cost savings.
• The higher mechanical properties of some grades of stainless over carbon steel may
enable the use of reduced metal sections.
• Stainless is forgiving in installation; it can be flush with the concrete surface without
subsequent corrosion risk.

SECTION 11: OTHER PRODUCTS: CARBON STEEL TUBE
Carbon Steel Tube

Carbon steel tubing finds common application in two major areas; heat transfer
in heat exchangers and condensers, and as hydraulic and pneumatic tubing.
This tube is produced as a seamless tube, with a final cold draw to guarantee
dimensional tolerances and an excellent surface finish. In common with other
1
S11
product this cold-drawn carbon steel tube is made to an all-plus tolerance if
intended for heat transfer applications, but is generally supplied with nominal
wall thickness (+/- tolerance) for hydraulic or pneumatic applications.
Stock range generally caters for applications in hydraulic and pneumatic tubing.
The projects department offers sourcing for materials used in other applications
according to customer specifications. These include heat exchanger tubes in standard
mill lengths and/or specific set lengths.
Specifications
ASTM A179M ‘Standard Specification for Seamless Cold-Drawn Low-Carbon

Steel Heat-Exchanger and Condenser Tubes’ covers minimum wall thickness tube for
heat transfer applications in sizes 3.18mm to 76.2mm OD.
The specification for heat exchanger tube is also used to specify seamless carbon steel
tube intended for hydraulic applications. This hydraulic tubing is manufactured with
average wall thickness specified; in all other respects the product conforms to the
requirements of ASTM A179M and ASTM A450M.
Product intended for hydraulic applications has nominal wall thicknesses in the SWG
series of sizes, while the minimum wall thickness heat exchanger tube is generally
in line with the BWG series.
In addition to the ASTM A179 tube stocked in heat exchanger and hydraulic variants,
welded carbon steel tube can be obtained to either ASTM A178 or ASTM A214.

SECTION 11: OTHER PRODUCTS: QUENCHED AND TEMPERED LOW ALLOY STEEL PLATE
Quenched and Tempered

Low Alloy Steel Plate
Atlas Specialty Metals stocks and distributes quenched and tempered plate,
a steel that is stronger and harder than ordinary carbon steel. The product is
used for the manufacture and repair of machinery and structures where greater
abrasion resistance or higher yield strength is required. 3
S11
Atlas primarily stocks the Bisalloy brand range of quenched and tempered plate that is
readily available in a multitude of grades and thicknesses. Bisalloy is a quality Australian-made
steel free of mill scale and imperfections, offering characteristics of good workability
and weldability.
Grade 80
High strength, low alloy structural steel with controlled carbon equivalent for optimum
weldability. This plate can be successfully welded to itself and a range of other steels,
provided low hydrogen consumables are used and attention is paid to preheat, interpass
temperature, heat input and the degree of joint restraint.
Stress relieving can be achieved at 540ºC-570ºC. Heating above this temperature should be
avoided to minimise adverse effects on mechanical properties. This plate can be successfully
cold formed, provided allowances are made for the increased strength of the steel.
Applications. Utilising the high strength properties of this grade allows reduction in
section thickness, without loss of structural integrity. Common applications:
• Transport equipment • Lifting equipment
• Excavator and loader buckets • Dump truck trays
Grade 400/450
High hardness, abrasion-resistant steel with a controlled carbon equivalent for optimum
weldability. With attention to heat input, preheat and consumable selection, it can be
readily welded to itself and other steels, using conventional low hydrogen processes.
Applications. Through the plate’s hardness and good mechanical properties this grade
is the most popular wear plate in Australia. It has been extensively used in the following areas:
• Dump trucks • Earthmoving buckets
• Chutes • Gear wheels
Grade 500
Medium carbon, high hardness and abrasion-resistant steel. With attention to heat
input, preheat and consumable selection, it can successfully be welded to itself and a
range of other steels.
The high hardness causes difficult cold forming, requiring higher bending and cold
forming forces along with greater allowances for springback.
Applications. The hardest quenched and tempered steel produced offers exceptional
long life in sliding abrasion applications such as:
• Chutes • Cutting edges
• Wear liners • Earthmoving buckets

SECTION 12: PRODUCT SUPPORT SERVICES: QUALITY ASSURANCE PRACTICES
Quality Assurance Practices

Quality assurance principles
A principal factor in the performance of an organisation is the quality of its

products and services. Quality is the sum total of the features or characteristics
of a product or service that determines whether it is satisfactory for the
intended end use.
Atlas Specialty Metals has a formal quality management system, which is certified to
ISO9001. The quality system at Atlas provides the following benefits to our customers:
• product identification and traceability at all stages of operations;
• product supplied only from approved vendors;
2 • product purchased to recognised specifications and standards;

S12
• mill inspection certificates available with purchases;
• continual improvement of the quality system;
• systematic and proper storage, packaging and handling of all products;
• personnel who identify easily with customer quality needs;
• an established inventory management system and procedures based on an integrated

computer network; and
• a computerised system of document control, record keeping and handling of non-

conforming product.
The Atlas quality assurance system is based on our ongoing commitment to meet our
customers’ expectations of quality and service. Our commitment to quality management
means we are constantly reassessing our performance and aim to continually improve
our systems and procedures with the aim of maintaining our leadership in the stainless
and special metals distribution industry in Australia and New Zealand.
An important aspect of the Atlas quality system is the ability to trace product from
the original source to end user. This process provides two significant services to the
customer:
• mill inspection certification when required; and
• product liability requirements can be complied with.
The mill inspection certificate is the evidence that the product supplied is in conformance
with the appropriate standard specification.

Product specifications
Most special metal products distributed by Atlas Specialty Metals are ordered to ASTM
(American Society for Testing and Materials) specifications. Some Australian (AS),
Euronorm (EN), British (BS), Japanese (JIS), German (DIN) and International (ISO)
standards are nominated where appropriate. ANSI/ASME specs are also commonly used
for fluid products. A list of the most common product specifications is contained in the
appendices of this publication.
ASTM standards are frequently issued in dual inch-pound and metric units and are
typically designated as follows: Stainless steel plate, sheet and coil to ASTM
A240/A240M. It is the policy of Atlas to purchase the metric version where one exists, in
this case ASTM A240M.
In the ASTM system ‘general requirements’ to product specifications, which includes

dimensional tolerance, are often given in separate specifications, for example, ASTM
A240/A240M refers to A480/A480M for dimensions, etc.
Product traceability 3
S12
Traceability of product achieves two things:
1. it provides correct documentation when a customer requires it (i.e. inspection

certificates); and
2. it enables traceability back to the supplier should there be a product non-conformance.

Traceability within Atlas Specialty Metals is based on:
• identification data supplied by the mill, with the product. This is typically a heat
number, batch number or bundle number; and
• the Atlas purchase order number is used as an identifier where the supplier does not
use their own batch identification.
Atlas controls the traceability of product up until the time it is delivered to a customer.
From that point it is the customer’s responsibility to maintain traceability.
Grade colour codes
Colour coding is a method employed as a secondary aid to steel grade identification and
is complementary to marked, tagged or label identification. Products not normally colour
coded are stainless steel tube, sheet and coil, fittings, flanges, wire, wire rope and
welding consumables.
Minor deviations from the standard colour are accounted for by a white stripe or band,
which indicates that the product varies in some way from the standard grade, or is
special in some way.

In addition some specific grades or product are colour coded as ‘no colour’... Atlas/ CR12
plate and U1004 carbon steel bright bar are not coded even though all other stainless
steel plate and bright bar products are. These products are identifiable as the only
uncoded products.
When colour coded product is cut the offcut is also colour coded.
Inspection certificates
Euronorm EN10204 covers test certification. It outlines the type of information to be

included in the certification and nominates the testing authority who should conduct
and sign-off the test certificates.
Type 3.1 test certificates must contain results of tests actually carried out on the batch of
material being certified (type 2 test certificates can contain typical rather than actual
values). Personnel independent of production must have carried out the tests and the
document must contain a statement that the product complies with the order or with
the relevant product specification.
4 Atlas standard purchasing requirement from mills is for test certification of product to
S12
EN10204, 3.1.
Supplier selection
Atlas aims to have a select group of preferred suppliers that have a proven track record
for commercial, delivery and quality performance.
The list of suppliers comprises a worldwide network of both mill and stockist specialty
metals suppliers. Mills usually provide lower prices, but large overseas stockists can often
deliver quicker.
Before a supplier is included on the Atlas approved vendors listing they must satisfy the
criteria of quality assurance and product approval processes conducted by the Technical
Services Department of Atlas. As a minimum criteria to selection new suppliers are
required to submit test samples, which are evaluated for conformance with recognised
standard specifications.
Existing suppliers are subjected to random product audits (from product in the
warehouses and from evaluation of customer complaints). Procedures also exist within
Atlas to monitor price competitiveness, delivery and service quality of all suppliers.

The grades and properties of

The families of stainless steel

• higher work hardening rate;

• higher strength and hardness;

• higher hot strength;

• higher corrosion resistance;

• higher cryogenic toughness; and

• lower magnetic response (for austenitic only).

Printed April 2008 www.atlasmetals.com.au

Austenitic stainless steels

Additional elements can be added such as molybdenum, titanium or copper, to modify

The characteristics of the austenitic stainless steels are:

• good corrosion resistance;

• weldable using standard methods and equipment;

• stable austenite structure at all temperatures;

• cannot be hardened by heat treatment;

• harden rapidly when cold worked;

• good strength and scaling resistance at high temperatures;

• excellent cryogenic properties; and

• non-magnetic when annealed.

Ferritic stainless steels

The characteristics of the ferritic grades are:

• good resistance to corrosion, but generally not as good as the austenitics;

• not as readily welded as austenitics;

• cannot be hardened by heat treatment;

• can only be moderately hardened by cold work;

• not suitable for use at very low temperatures;

• stable ferrite structure at all temperatures; and

• immune from chloride stress corrosion cracking.
