[QUOTE="Diogenes, post: 46837, member: 91"] "Reviving a post from over four years ago, does anyone have additional information on the precise alloy and heat treatment used for the Girdraulics? The above composition doesn't correspond to any standard alloy. However, testing companies can be remarkably far off in the compositions they quote, even to the extent of reporting significant quantities of elements that aren't even present." Material used was BS L40 or the almost identical RR56, depending on which source you read. Details of those material specs are given in the Materials folder in the Files section of [B][url]http://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/stevenageworld/info[/url][/B] To see the contents, you need to first join that YAHOO Group - though that is no sweat as it is free to join or to leave. That Group also contains many other hard-to-get Vincent related articles. [ If you wonder why I started a 'new' topic, it is the only way I could get the web site to work for me.] [/QUOTE]
