AMS 5643 Stainless Steel

AMS 5643 stainless steel is an austenitic, chromium-nickel-manganese alloy that provides excellent corrosion resistance and a high strength-to-weight ratio. It has excellent formability, weldability, and machinability as well as superior creep resistance.

This grade of steel is often used in aerospace and marine applications due to its ability to withstand extreme temperatures and corrosive environments. It is also commonly used in medical and dental implants, as well as food processing equipment and chemical industry machinery.

With its excellent mechanical properties and resistance to corrosion, AMS 5643 stainless steel is an ideal choice for a wide variety of applications. The alloy has low carbon content which makes it easier to cold work and it also has excellent resistance to many organic acids.

The high chromium content provides improved corrosion resistance compared to other alloys, and this grade of steel is highly resistant to stress corrosion cracking. Additionally, its low magnetic permeability enhances its suitability for use in medical implants.
