Impact strength
Due to its austenitic microstructure, Sandvik SANMAC 4571 has very good impact strength both at room temperature and at cryogenic temperatures.
Tests have demonstrated that the steel fulfils the requirements (60 J (44 ft-lb) at -196 oC (-320oF)) according to the European standards prEN13445-2(UFPV-2) and EN 10272.

Welding
The weldability of Sanmac 4571 is good. Suitable methods of fusion welding are manual metal-arc welding (MMA/SMAW) and gas-shielded arc welding, with the TIG/GTAW method as first choice.
Since this material is alloyed in such a way to improve its machinability, the amount of surface oxides on the welded beads might be higher compared to that of the standard 316Ti steels.
This may lead to arc instability during TIG/GTAW welding, especially welding without filer material. However, the welding behavior of this material is the same as for standard 316Ti steels when welding with filler material.
For Sanmac 4571, heat input of <1.5 kJ/mm and interpass temperature of <100°C (210°F) are recommended. Preheating and post-weld heat treatment are normally not necessary.

Machining
SANMAC stands for Sandvik Machinability Concept. In SANMAC materials, machinability has been improved without jeopardizing properties such as corrosion resistance and mechanical strength.
The improved machinability is owing to:
- Optimized non-metallic inclusions
- Optimal chemical composition
- Optimized process and production parameters
Detailed recommendations for the choice of tools and cutting data regarding turning, thread cutting, parting/grooving, drilling, milling and sawing are provided in the brochure S-02909-ENG.
The diagram shows the ranges within which data should be chosen in order to obtain a tool life of minimum 10 minutes when machining SANMAC 4571.
Figure 1. Machining chart Sandvik SANMAC 4571.
The ranges are limited in the event of low feeds because of unacceptable chip breaking. In the case of high cutting speeds, plastic deformation is the most dominant cause of failure. When feed increases and the cutting speed falls, edge frittering (chipping) increases significantly. The diagram is applicable for short cutting times. For long, continuous cuts, the cutting speeds should be reduced somewhat.
The lowest recommended cutting speed is determined by the tendency of the material to stick to the insert (built-up-edge), although the integrity of insert clamping and the stability of the machine are also of great significance.
It is important to conclude which wear mechanism is active, in order to optimize cutting data with the aid of the diagram.

Drilling of Sandvik Sanmac
The recommended methods for drilling give the most cost effective results for the respective diameter ranges. When producing holes with diameters larger than 58 mm, short-hole drilling is used up to 58 mm, followed by internal turning up to the desired diameter. Cutting data for internal turning should be chosen in accordance with the turning recommendations. The recommendations for drilling are applicable for a tool-life of 30 minutes.
