Note 1: Tests are run by quenching samples from elevated temperatures
and listing the temperature differential at which significant flexural loss occurs.
Note 2: Wear Resistance-Impingement tests are run using a fry fused alumina abrasive.
Rubbing tests are run using a dry 240 grit fused alumina abrasive. The indices in the
chart are calculated by dividing the material volume loss by the volume loss of a AD-85
alumina control. The lower the index, the better the wear resistance.
The chart above is intended to illustrate typical properties only. Engineering data is
representative. Property values vary somewhat with method of manufacture, size, and
shape of part. This data is not to be construed as absolute and does not constitute a
warranty for which we assume legal responsibility. size, and shape of part. Close
control of values of most properties can be maintained if specified.
