DESCRIPTION
AMPCO® 18.136 is a variation of AMPCO® 18 specifically heat-treated to increase the impact resistance by 40% (see Charpy values) and the elastic limit in compression by 10% without affecting the tensile strength of the alloy.
APPLICATION
This AMPCO® 18.136 has been tailor-made for steel mill applications as slippers and screw-down nuts and for similar applications where an extreme wear pressure is combined with important impact loading.
