[PSUBS-MAILIST] HY-80 to HY-100

[swaters@waters-ks.com via Personal_Submersibles]

So the tinsel strength of HY-80 is 80,000 psi and HY-100 is 100,000 psi, makes since. Why does Phil Nuytten go with HY-80 on the deep worker 3000? It would seem like you would want to go with HY-100 just for added safety. Perhaps HY-100 is harder to weld or more expensive?

Thanks,
Scott Waters

A little update on my research. I have not given up on HY-80 or HY-100 compared to 516 gr70. I finally found a very good supplier for HY-80 - HY-100. I am getting over the hurdles of finding this stuff, the next hurdle is the welding part of it. Still learning, but can someone tell me the differences in HY-80 compared to HY-100?
