Annealed S36200 Stainless Steel
Annealed S36200 stainless steel is S36200 stainless steel in the annealed condition. The graph bars on the material properties cards below compare annealed S36200 stainless steel to: wrought precipitation-hardening stainless steels (top), all iron alloys (middle), and the entire database (bottom). A full bar means this is the highest value in the relevant set. A half-full bar means it's 50% of the highest, and so on.
