A non-heat-treatable manganese alloy referenced for tube applications in condensers and heat-exchange equipment. Cold-work condition changes its mechanical behaviour.
Selected reference facts; incomplete alloy coverage. Keep typical values, source minima and composition limits distinct. Reference records are not certificates or design allowables.

Chemical composition
Composition coverage remains pending source review.
Fabrication and material selection
Use the actual tube condition and specification. The source contains a malformed copper value and an unusual tensile-specimen diameter; composition and that specimen-size detail remain withheld pending clarification.
Applications and product forms
Confirm the end-use requirements against the supplied material and governing specification.
Standards and acceptance
Identify the governing product specification by the actual form and manufacturing route. A grade designation alone does not establish compliance or equivalence. Confirm the edition, required condition, inspection and dimensional limits through the supplier and an authorized specification.

Technical questions
Are typical values delivery limits?
No. A typical reference value describes the source condition; it is not a guaranteed minimum for a delivered lot.
Which temper and thickness should I compare?
Compare the same material form, temper, thickness/test condition, unit and value basis. Different conditions cannot be silently treated as interchangeable.
Technical sources and verification
Selected reference facts checked 14 October 2026. Source values apply to their stated material condition and are not certification of supplied stock.
