• Description:
  Iron aluminides were studied as possible substitutes for stainless steels. In a Bureau investigation on the mechanical properties of Fe-28Al, the material's machining properties were significantly improved at slow tool and feed speeds. This study shows that the alloy can be machined at higher speeds using high-speed steel end mills, and that water-soluble cutting oil is a suitable lubricant and coolant.
