AerMet ® 100 (AMS 6532)
Technical Data Sheet
AerMet® 100 (UNS K92580) is a alloy that has been designed to have properties of excellent hardness and strength combined with exceptional ductility and toughness. AM 100 is used in applications that require high fracture toughness and excellent resistance to stress corrosion cracking and fatigue. AerMet® 100 is considered as a candidate for use in applications such as Armor, Fasteners, Landing Gear, Jet Engine Shafts, Structural Members, Drive Shafts, Structural Tubing. Aermet 100 bar is supplied in the normalized and overaged condition (maximum hardness 372HB) ready for subsequent heat treatment.
