AMS 5737 Physical and Chemical Properties

Per AMS 5737 specifications, A286 stainless steel is a precipitation-hardenable, corrosion- and heat-resistant alloy. It combines oxidation resistance up to 1500 °F (816 °C) with mechanical use properties up to 1300 °F (704 °C).

Nominal composition: 15% Cr, 25.5% Ni, 1.2% Mo, 2.1% Ti, 0.30% V, and 0.006% B, with balanced Fe. 

A286 Stainless Steel in AMS 5737 Specification, per SAE International:
“This specification covers a corrosion and heat resistant steel in the form of bars, wire, forgings, mechanical tubing, and stock for forging or heading.

These products have been used typically for parts, such as turbine rotors, shafts, blades, vanes, dowels, flanges, and fittings, requiring moderate strength up to 1300 degrees F (704 degrees C) and oxidation resistance up to 1500 degrees F (816 degrees C), but usage is not limited to such applications.”

What is Stainless Steel AMS 5737?

AMS 5737 is a manufacturing standard for a high-performance stainless steel alloy called A286. It is used in parts that must handle extreme heat and stress. It is sourced from pure metals like iron, chromium, nickel, molybdenum, and titanium, which are melted together and refined for cleanliness. The molten alloy is cast, then hot-worked into bars, rings, tubes, or other shapes. Through precise heat treatments, the steel is strengthened and made resistant to heat and corrosion. Finally, it’s machined into finished parts, inspected, and certified to meet AMS 5737’s strict requirements before being used in applications like jet engines, turbines, and other demanding machinery.

Advantages of High Temperature, Corrosion Resistant Stainless Steel AMS 5737

The properties of AMS 5737 render it indispensable in jet engines, superchargers, and industrial gas turbines. Our aerospace and automotive clients like to use it for critical components like rotors, shafts, and blades. Additionally, we see it used in high-temperature applications, like jet engine afterburners, tanks and tank engines (superchargers), piping, pumps, and heat exchangers.
