    Recent Machine Tool Scorecard (formerly Blue Bulletin)?

    Does anyone have access to a recent version (2006+) of this report? I am most interested in the relative rankings, but it would be nice to have the sales for say the top 15 manufacturers. If this has been reported by one of the machining trade mags (Modern Machine Shop, Manufacturing...

    Type 303Cu stainless steel and ASTM A 582

    Does anyone know if this grade is included in the latest revision (2005) of this standard? I only have the 2002 revision and it does not appear in this one. This seems a little odd since the 1998 version of JIS G 4303 includes it. Any background would be appreciated.

    Dissimilar thickness welds

    Is there a rule-of-thumb for the maximum difference in material thickness for two members to be joined by GMAW? I am interested in general applications, but a specific geometry is as follows: 50 mm tube OD x 2.25 mm thickness low carbon steel (HSLA or plain carbon) 3.5 mm bracket low carbon...

    Corrosion rate of carbon & stainless steel in 10% HCl

    I am looking for general corrosion rate data (mm/year or mils/year) for Type 304 stainless steel and a basic carbon steel that would qualify as a grade 5 fastener under SAE J 429, i.e. medium carbon steel (0.28 to 0.55% carbon content). The temperature range of interest is ambient to 200 F...
