Nitronic 50 or XM-19 is technically an austenitic stainless steel with superior corrosion resistance to that of 316 and 317 with almost twice the yield strength at room temperature. At both higher and lower temps this alloy possesses good mechanical properties. Where N50 is unique is that unlike other grades of austenitic stainless steels, it doesn’t become magnetic when cold worked or cooled to below zero temps.

Nitronic 50 has fantastic corrosion resistance in the following applications: petrochemical, food processing, marine applications, as well as some nuclear and oil and gas. N50 is available in the following forms: Round Bar, Plate and Sheet. Looking for more information on Nitronic 50? Check out our latest video on N50, click here or watch below:
