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.AK Steel 439 LT is a ferritic stainless steel that has both oxidation resistance and corrosion resistance superior to Type 409, making the alloy attractive for numerous difficult-to-form automotive exhaust applications. The lower titanium content of this alloy compared to Type 439 (see Alloy Digest SS-874, Feb 2003) provides an improved surface essentially free from titanium scale.
