📌 Section 13 (Tensile Requirements) is where you find the trade-offs. Condition H900 gives you ~170 ksi yield, but you lose ductility. Condition H1150 drops to ~105 ksi yield but doubles your impact resistance.
The standard is the primary specification for hot-rolled and cold-finished age-hardening stainless steel bars and shapes . These alloys, also known as precipitation-hardening (PH) steels, are prized for their unique ability to achieve high strength and hardness through low-temperature heat treatments while maintaining corrosion resistance comparable to austenitic grades like 304 stainless steel .
