A 5% nickel steel that behaves like 9%, cuts the cost of shipping LNG For liquefied natural gas containment, this new Armco alloy, CRYONIC 5™, does what 9% nickel steel does— only cheaper. Armco CRYONIC 5 Steel contains just 5% nickel, yet provides toughness properties similar to 9% nickel steel. It sells for almost 20% less. The low cost is a result of reduced nickel content. To achieve the toughness requirements of ASTM A 553, Armco research metallurgists have developed a unique heat treatment—for which patent application has been made. The result is a product ideally suited to the special needs of LNG (Liquefied natural gas) shipment and con- tainment. It's readily weldable, strong, tough and low in cost. And it comes at a time when marine architects and shipbuilders can put its advantages to work immediately. Want more information? Send the coupon for our new Design & Application Data folder.
