AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on selecting materials for a temperature-varying tube designed for Variable Speed Magnetometry (VSM) applications, particularly under high-temperature conditions. Key requirements include ease of machining, suitability for medium vacuum levels (10^-4 Torr), nonmagnetic properties, and the ability to withstand temperatures ranging from 100 to 1100 K, with a specified diameter of 20-35 mm and a thickness of approximately 1 mm. A suggestion is made to consider austenitic steels, which may meet these criteria. The conversation emphasizes the importance of material properties in achieving the desired performance for the VSM component.

:rolleyes:I am designing temperature varying tube for VSM, especially high temperature. I don't have any experience on materials for this component. Please give me your idea about choosing material.

Requirements for the tube is :shy::
- easy for machining
- to use for medium vacuum (10^-4 Torr).
- nonmagnetic material
- to use in temperature range of 100 - 1100 K
- diameter of 20 - 35 mm; thickness of ~ 1 mm

Thanking you! :rolleyes:

I don't know what is VSM, but austenitic steels can be helpful.
