6150 Characteristics
Property
specification
Weldability
6150 exhibits good weldability for a spring-steel grade. Welding of hardened and tempered material should be avoided or carefully controlled to avoid embrittlement.
Thermal Cutting
6150 requires care with heat input and cooling to avoid edge hardening or retained martensite that could reduce toughness or cause cracking.
Bendability
6150 offers good formability and bendability for fabrication.
Ease of Fabrication
6150 is reasonably formable when supplied in the annealed condition.
