A286 - also known as alloy 660 - is an iron stainless steel austenitic precipitation hardening alloy: outstanding mechanical strength and higher temperature corrosion-resistance. It falls under the number UNS S66286 with nickel (2527 per cent) as the primary material with chromium (1314 per cent), iron and minute quantities of titanium and aluminium. It is ideal because of these factors giving it a unique ability to retain strength up to temperatures of 700 C (1300°F).

Some of the range of products sold at Metal Aims include high-quality Alloy 660 (A286) Round Bars that meet international standards such as ASTM A286, which can be used in the foreign and domestic markets.

Alloy 660 offers better in terms of tensile and creep-rupture strength, considering it operates well even at temperatures that are over 600 C. It is also commonly used in components of jet engines along with turbine disks and high-temperature fasteners.
A286 stainless steel bars are resistant to corrosion in oxidizing and slightly reducing atmospheres, thus, it is possible to use the bars in chemical processing plants, furnace parts, and marine settings.
This alloy is quite structurally stable not only under high stress but also under temperature cycling, and this also helps avoid chances of cracking or otherwise failure in applications that are mission-critical.
Because the A286 round bars seem to be manufactured easily, machined easily, and welded easily as well, it has turned out to be flexible material to a wide range of industries in need of high precision, alloy rods, or heat-resistant bar stock.

Frequently asked question:

Q: What sizes are available in A286 round bars?
A: Round bars are commonly produced in a diameter of 6 mm to 200 mm, although special machining can be done to suit an individual requirement. Metal Aims provides non-typical and regular sizes in bulk as well as at retail level.

Q: Are round bars of the Alloy type 660 welded?
A: Yes, A286 can be welded by means of TIG or MIG though post welding heat treatment to recover the mechanical properties is advised.

Q: Is Alloy 660 different to A286?
A: No--Alloy 660 is an alloy code, but also a trade name; A286 is the ASTM standard specification on this alloy. Both of them are made of the same material marked UNS designation S66286.

Q: How do I find A286 Round Bars suppliers in Mumbai or India?
A: Metal Aims will be your source of high-quality bars of A286 since it is your manufacturer, dealer and exporter of high-quality bars of this material in Mumbai, India. Best prices and availability are by calling +91 91670 66280 or email.
