*Since brazing is performed at
temperatures within the hot-short range, strain must be avoided
during the brazing and cooling of this alloy.
The values listed above represent
reasonable approximations suitable for general engineering use.
Due to commercial variations in composition and to manufacturing
limitations, they should not be used for specification purposes.
See applicable A.S.T.M. specification references.
