This report documents recent experiments on the structural properties of Nitronic 60, Level 5 (cold worked to approximately 50% reduction in diameter). Material from two different vendors was examined. Different cold working approaches by the two vendors resulted in inhomogeneous material properties that varied as a function of distance from the center of the rod. Measurements were compared to Sandia specifications (7343200-7343207). The effect of several parameters on structural properties was examined, including lot-to-lot variability, lot diameter, radial location of tensile bars, tensile bar size, and cold working method. Most significantly, the apparent tensile strength, yield strength, and ductility were found to all vary with radial distance from the center of the bar.
