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.ASTRALLOY-V is a very deep hardening nickel-chromium-molybdenum alloy steel that combines excellent hardness, toughness and wear resistance. It is hot formable without property loss and cold formable at high strength levels. The steel has good elevated-temperature properties. Applications which are based on wear resistance include dragline buckets, wear strips for continuous mining equipment, grizzly bars, drag chain and coal hopper docks.
