Why is some stainless steel magnetic and other stainless steel is not magnetic?
In: Chemistry
I work with aircraft superalloys & most have a high level of nickel. Inconel, L605 & A286 are nonmagnetic, but 17-4 & 15-5 (both 400-series) SS is very magnetic. 400-series is a breeze to machine & can be heat-treated for hardness.
