Royston, Jr., Wash- I ington, D.C., assignors to the United States of America as represented by the Secretary of Commerce N0 Drawing. Filed Oct. 3, 1961, Ser. No. 142,740 4 Claims. (Cl. 75128) This invention relates to a high density, nonmagnetic 3,156,558 Patented Nov. 10, 1964 out in air in a 16 pound laboratory induction furnace and the metal was poured into the form of 1 /2 inch diameter bars. These were given a four-hour homogenizing anneal in vacuum at 2000 F. prior to hot working. The steels were hot worked by forging and swaging to rods of about 0.6 inch diameter. Hot working was carried out in the temperature range of about 2100 to 1600 F.
After hot working, the rods were cut into lengths of about 6 inches and turned between centers for cleaning.
10 Samples of the clean, hot-worked material were then stainless steel. taken for spectrochemical and chemical analyses and for By long established custom, the values of weights have determination of density and magnetic permeability. The been expressed as weight in air against standards having analyses of the two steels that closely approached the dea density of 8.4 grams per cubic centimeter. Weights sired density are shown in the following table:
