Does anyone know the relationship between shear strength and yield strength of 304 stainless steel or any type of stainless steel for that matter. My Machinists handbook does not list that value for stainless steel. I found on some other old forums on the internet that .577 x yield or .6 x yield as a rule of thumb works for shear, but I don't know the source of that info or how it is derived. I look forward to your replies.
