Picked up a good sized piece of 1" steel plate from the remnant yard.
Got it back to the shop to discover the band saw will barely nick it.
Hard and tough, hacksaw basically skips off it.
Abrasion cut off a chunk and went back to the rem yard, they have the billion dollar gun to determine the composition.
These are the numbers that were displayed.
Fe 94%
Si 1.47%
Al 1.24%
Ni 0.81%
Mo 0.32%
Cr 0.31%
From there out I didn't record the other minor elements.
None of that seems to match T1, Hard OX, or the AR steels.
But I never found a source that lists the various grades composition side by side.
Anyone know what this plate might be, or have a good link with the element compositions?
