We are the Supplier of Nitronic 60 Stainless Steel Plates.
Nitronic 60 Stainless Steel was originally designed as a temperature alloy, and subsequently has good high temperature properties for temperatures around 1800ºF.
We supply and export to Singapore , Indonesia , Brunei and other ASEAN Countries.
Our specialty is to provide Nitronic 60 Plates without any MOQ and cut to size based on your requirements.
Nitronic 60 stainless steel plates, also known as Alloy 218, are premium austenitic stainless steels designed to deliver superior galling resistance, wear resistance, and strength compared to standard grades like 304 and 316.
As a trusted Nitronic 60 Stainless Steel Plates Supplier, we provide high-quality plates that perform exceptionally well in demanding industrial environments where metal-to-metal wear, corrosion, and high mechanical stress are common challenges.
Nitronic 60 is an austenitic stainless steel strengthened with manganese, silicon, and nitrogen additions. These alloying elements make it unique compared to conventional stainless steels:
Silicon and Manganese – Provide outstanding galling resistance and improved wear performance under load.
Nitrogen Strengthening – Enhances yield and tensile strength without compromising toughness.
Chromium and Nickel – Deliver excellent corrosion resistance in seawater, mild acids, and high-temperature oxidation environments.
Unlike many high-strength alloys that are expensive and difficult to machine, Nitronic 60 offers a balance between cost-effectiveness, machinability, and superior wear performance.
✅ Unmatched Galling Resistance – Prevents seizing and sticking in wear-prone applications.
✅ Superior High-Temperature Performance – Maintains strength and oxidation resistance up to 982°C (1800°F).
✅ Excellent Corrosion Resistance – Comparable to Type 316 stainless steel in seawater and chemical environments.
✅ Non-Magnetic Properties – Remains non-magnetic even after cold working.
✅ Cost-Effective Alternative – Outperforms cobalt and nickel-based alloys at a lower cost.
As an experienced Nitronic 60 Stainless Steel Plates Supplier, we deliver materials for a wide range of industries, including:
Marine & Offshore – Shafts, fasteners, wear plates, and pump components.
Oil & Gas – Valve seats, stems, and drilling equipment subject to galling.
Power & Energy – Turbine blades, seals, and high-temperature bushings.
Automotive & Aerospace – Exhaust systems, bolts, and engine components.
Food & Chemical Processing – Equipment exposed to both corrosion and friction.
Its ability to withstand metal-to-metal wear makes it a preferred choice in industries where downtime and equipment failures are costly.
Chromium (Cr): 16–18%
Nickel (Ni): 8–9%
Manganese (Mn): 8–9%
Silicon (Si): 3.5–4.5%
Nitrogen (N): 0.15–0.30%
Carbon (C): Max 0.10%
Iron (Fe): Balance
This composition ensures a synergy between strength, toughness, and corrosion resistance.
❓ What is the hardness of Nitronic 60 ?
Nitronic 60 hardness is typically around HRB 95–100, providing excellent wear and galling resistance compared to 304 and 316 stainless steels.
❓ Is Nitronic 60 good for seawater applications?
Absolutely. With corrosion resistance comparable to 316 and high resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion, Nitronic 60 is ideal for marine and offshore use.
❓ Does Nitronic 60 work well at high temperatures?
Yes. It maintains oxidation resistance up to 982°C (1800°F) and retains strength where other stainless steels fail.
❓ What are the key material properties of Nitronic 60 ? And Yield Strength of Nitronic 60 ?
E Steel Sdn Bhd is a leading Nitronic 60 Stainless Steel Plates Supplier, offering certified plates with mill test certificates (MTC) and global delivery options.
The yield strength of Nitronic 60 is approximately 380 MPa (55 ksi), making it stronger than standard stainless steels like 304 and 316.
❓ What is the equivalent of Nitronic 60 ?
Nitronic 60 is also known as Alloy 218 and has UNS designation S21800, or another brand name of ATI 60. It is considered an equivalent material to XM-19 in certain applications, but with higher galling resistance.
❓ Can Nitronic 60 be welded ? and is Nitronic 60 Magnetic ?
Yes. Nitronic 60 can be welded using standard welding techniques, including TIG and MIG welding. It maintains good toughness in the welded condition and does not require preheating. For best results, proper filler metals should be selected to match strength and corrosion resistance.
No. Nitronic 60 is a non-magnetic stainless steel, even after cold working. This makes it ideal for applications where non-magnetic properties are essential, such as in electronics, aerospace, and medical equipment.
