View Sample Alloy Digest Data Sheet (PDF)Since 1952, Alloy Digest has been the leading reference for materials property data on metals and alloys used throughout the world. Featuring graphs, charts and tables, these sheets give facts and figures on composition or characterization, physical and mechanical properties, heat treatment, and machinability.AMETEK 820 alloy is a powder metallurgically produced strip that is used in hardfacing weld wire. The production process, however, can produce other special strip compositions such as the nickel-chromium alloys used as resistance alloys.
