A286 Stainless Steel

The A286 stainless steel alloy is an age-hardened, austenitic iron-based material ideal for applications that are exposed to a wide range of temperatures over time. Highly resistant to oxidation, even at elevated temperatures, this material is often used for its superior creep strength as well.
