Re:Torsion bar
(OP)
Hello guys,we are tasked to reengineer a rate gyro that has a floating gimbal assembly,the rate is determined by the force exerted on the Torsion Bar.How can we find out what type metal this is and who can reproduce such a part for us, we can really use the help now.

Who's unit is it?
These are very sensitive, you may need to destroy one in order to duplicate it.

Corrosion never sleeps, but it can be managed.

RE: Re:Torsion bar
If the final application is some type of aerospace device, then I don't see how you can avoid destroying the sample if you do not already have engineering drawings or some other technical documents. Merely knowing the general chemical composition will not be sufficient. Other important items include specifics of the chemical composition like impurity elements (O, N, S, P, Sn, etc.), strength, hardness, microstructure (grain size, grain size variation, texture, etc.).

You are going to want composition, microstructure and mechanical properties in addition to all of the dimensional data.
