This paper investigates the value of the nominal elongation of N18K9M5T maraging steel in relation to sheet thickness, structure of steel, and the specimen type. The characteristics of strength and plasticity determined in testing of cylindrical and flat specimens of the investigated steel is presented. The authors conclude that the total elongation of N18K9M5T maraging steel is its abnormally high capacity for plastic deformation in the formation of the neck. To obtain closer values of elongation in testing N18K9M5T steel thin sheet of different thicknesses, it is desirable to use specimens in which the ratio b/sub 0//alpha/sub 0/ is less than or equal to 4:1.
