Stainless Steel Handbook 

 

Hi,

I am a industrialist and want a handbook on stainless steel. Where can I find it?

Hello Chetan!

One of the best that I've seen for the price (FREE!) is "Design Guidelines for the Selection and Use of Stainless Steel" published by the Nickel Development Institute. Go to www.nidi.org, and order publication 9014. While you're there, also get a copy of Davidson & Redmond's article on "Practical Guide to using Duplex Stainless Steel", publication 10044, since 9014 doesn't cover the duplex grades well.

If you want something more substantial, a search at Amazon.com using "stainless steel" should get you enough to satisfy, even neglecting the "stainless steel rat" series of books by Harry Harrison.

Good luck!
