Fatigue limit



Fatigue limit, also known as stress limit, is a property of ferrous iron alloys and titanium It is the level of fatigue] (cyclical [[Stress_(physics)|stress) that can be repeatedly applied to and removed from a metal without ever causing it to fail no matter how many times the stress is cycled. Most metals, including structural materials such as aluminium, do not have a fatigue limit and will eventually fail even under very light loads if the load is cycled enough times.
