RE: Type of Alloy Material
Examples of low alloy include Grade 11, 22, 4130, 4340
Intermediate would include 9 to 12 Cr steel
High alloy would be austenitic stainless steel, nickel-base alloys, chromium-nickel-molybdenum alloys.
RE: Type of Alloy Material
A lot of it has to do with processing requirements not just alloy content.
And the phrases are also used within alloy groups.
So for Duplex Stainless Steels you have lean alloy grades (2001, 2002) Intermediate (2205), and high alloy grades (2507, Zeron 100).
