By varying the heat treatment and by close control of all operations, the characteristic duplex
structure of AMPCO® 18 is refined to produce a material AMPCO® 18.22 having substantially
higher ultimate strength, yield strength and hardness.
Application
AMPCO® 18.22 has been developed to meet the exact requirements of the aircraft industry for an alloy
having increased physical properties, hardness and sufficient elongation to withstand important impacts
and loads. It is recommended for use as bushings, bearings liners, inserts, piston parts, nuts and slides,
etc.
