A fast neutron-irradiated zirconium-base alloy body having load-carrying capacity substantially greater than similar conventional zirconium-base alloy bodies likewise irradiated is produced by subjecting a body heat treated at 930 DEG C. and then water-quenched and containing 0.2 weight percent beryllium and at least 95 weight percent zirconium to integrated neutron flux approximating 1.2x1021 nvt while maintaining the body at about 330 DEG C.
