Technical Data Sheet

BS S155 is the British aerospace equivalent of U.S. steel grade 300M (4340M / AMS 6257). It is a vacuum melted grade supplied in the normalised and tempered/softened condition to allow for final heat treatment. It has a combination of ultra high strength, good fatigue resistance and excellent transverse properties and as such finds many applications in the aerospace industry such as undercarriage components, gears and shafts.
