Request for Micrographs of grade CA-15 Cast Stainless Steel

Request for Micrographs of grade CA-15 Cast Stainless Steel

Request for Micrographs of grade CA-15 Cast Stainless Steel

(OP)
As described in header; I've googled thoroughly and found very little. Hardness is 38~42 HRC, which I believe is at the higher end of the useful range. CCT and TTT diagrams are also welcomed.

RE: Request for Micrographs of grade CA-15 Cast Stainless Steel


I have one reference below. There are a few more from Flowserve Valves/ Edward Valves, please ask them for a copy. I do not have them presently.I am trying to locate them.

Did you look for 410 stainless steels.

RE: Request for Micrographs of grade CA-15 Cast Stainless Steel

Try ASM Handbook 8th Edition Volume 7 p. 151-153. This may also be in the 9th edition but I am too lazy to walk across the hall. The volume is titled "Atlas of Microstructures of Industrial Alloys".

RE: Request for Micrographs of grade CA-15 Cast Stainless Steel

pg 1644, fig 55.
Stick with the 8th ed, better info.

For more try the ASM Specialty Handbook, Stainless Steels.
There is a chapter on metallography and microstructures of cast stainless steels.

The Steel Founders Society of America publication " Atlas of Cast Corrosion Resistant Alloy Microstructures" may also be useful and covers cast stainless steels of most types in addition to the martensitic stainless steels.

@brimstoner,

If you could contact Raymond Monroe he could provide more references. He has been assisting me, with his publications. You can find his contact details on SFSA website. (www.sfsa.org)
