0.05C 20.3Ni-1.2Mo Low Alloy Steel
metalA high-nickel low-alloy steel containing approximately 20% nickel, 1.2% molybdenum, and 2.25% titanium with very low carbon content (0.05%), this material is engineered to provide exceptional strength-to-weight performance combined with corrosion and wear resistance. Historically used in aerospace landing gear, rocket motor casings, and high-strength fasteners where extreme reliability under cyclic loading and harsh environments is critical. The high nickel content and molybdenum additions create a material notable for maintaining toughness at cryogenic temperatures and resisting hydrogen embrittlement, making it preferred over conventional structural steels in applications involving liquefied propellants or high-pressure hydrogen service.
