    materials for insulatet heating element

    Hello gentlemen, I'm trying to produce a heater element to be incorporated into a steel valve body to maintain fluid temperature in the 1000K ballpark. Obviously I can't simply pass a copper wire so I'd be very grateful if anyone could give me the commercial names for the materials commonly used...

    hardening of 4340 for ultimate strength

    Hello, I'm designing a flywheel for storage of 7 MJ. Currently I'm achieving that spinning at 14500 rpm a 500mm diameter (20 inch) x 120mm (4.7 inch) 4340 cylinder. I'm assuming I can harden it to 2020 MPa (293000 ksi) ultimate strength according to this matweb datasheet...

    how can I add a 1mm coating of aluminum or copper to steel?

    The coating is supposed to carry induced electrical currents better than the steel itself. Would be placed on a steel plate 20+mm thick. Due to large magnetic fields and large forces induced by magnetism this must be a mechanically strong coupling. Does anyone know of a process I could use? Thanks.
