Shear Strength of 416 SST
Shear Strength of 416 SST
(OP)
Gentlemen:
I need help finding the shear strength of
416 SST @36 RC. Can anyone help? Hopefully
with a quotable reference...Thanks
Terry

RE: Shear Strength of 416 SST
This is a simple test to perform, so you can obtain the information yourself at minimal cost.
You can always use the relationship:
τ = 0.6 · σ
where
τ is the shear strength
σ is the tensile strength
This is rooted in the ductile failure criteria (Tresca, von Mises), but less precise due to variable strain hardening in tension vs. shear, plus higher scatter in fracture vs. yielding.

RE: Shear Strength of 416 SST
60% is a good starting place, but in austenitic materials the strain hardening changes things.
In this grade there is little work hardening, but the possible variation in hardness across the diameter will have an impact.
