ASTM A 182 F 316 Flanges Hardness
- Thread starter LPC1
- Start date
Hardness is not required for the austenitic grades because they are required to be solution treated before use by this material specification. Also, the austenitic stainless steel grades do not harden by heat treatment, so hardness is not necessary to evaluate.
