Annealed K93600 Alloy
Annealed K93600 is K93600 alloy in the annealed condition. It has the lowest strength compared to the other variants of K93600 alloy. The graph bars on the material properties cards below compare annealed K93600 to: low-expansion iron alloys (top), all iron alloys (middle), and the entire database (bottom). A full bar means this is the highest value in the relevant set. A half-full bar means it's 50% of the highest, and so on.
