A steel by any other name...
A steel by any other name...
(OP)
All,
Can anyone confirm the various designations for type 301LN stainless steel in 1/2 Hard condition:
I've seen
S30153
AMS5518
SUS301LN
ASTM A666
Are these all referring to the same thing?
Does anyone have a cross-reference website that could help demystify this?

The SUS is another version of a composition designation.
The AMS and ASTM are product specification. They cover chemistry, properties, testing and tolerances.
In the case of ASTM A666 it covers dozens of alloys in many different strengths.
You need to own a copy of it so that you know how to order the correct material.

I find the ASM "Worldwide Guide to Equivalent Irons and Steels" indispensable in comparing international sources; check it out!
