Stainless Steel Incoloy 801 Annealed vs Incoloy 801 StabAnn
Stainless Steel · Incoloy 801 temper comparison
Incoloy 801 Annealed and Incoloy 801 StabAnn are two conditions of the same stainless steel grade, Incoloy 801: Annealed versus StabAnn (stabilize Annealed / Aged). The chemistry is identical, so every difference below comes from the condition. Incoloy 801 StabAnn is the stronger of the two: yield strength 275 MPa (39.9 ksi) against 240 MPa (34.8 ksi) for Incoloy 801 Annealed, about 15% more; tensile strength follows at 620 MPa (89.9 ksi) vs 585 MPa (84.8 ksi). In exchange, Incoloy 801 Annealed is the more ductile: elongation 42% versus 35% for Incoloy 801 StabAnn, and Incoloy 801 StabAnn is harder (170 HB vs 150 HB).

Incoloy 801 Annealed vs Incoloy 801 StabAnn: propertiesHow to read these bars
- One bar per material. A full bar is the highest value among all stainless steel grades in the FabDigit library; each bar is drawn as a share of that.
- The better value (by the usual engineering direction) is in bold. Rows with no direction — density, thermal conductivity — have no bold.
- Values are typical room-temperature figures for the condition named on each card.
- Confirm against the certified mill or resin datasheet before design release.
