## About Special steels for aviation and aerospace

Special steels for aviation and aerospace are engineered steels designed to provide controlled mechanical properties and reliable performance in demanding service. Their alloying and heat-treatment capabilities support components that require a combination of strength, toughness and fatigue resistance, including aircraft structures and engine parts.

This describes the material class as a whole. Always confirm the individual grade against the standard before ordering.

What this alloy is

Fe Ni Cr Mn

Iron — the balance, never listed by a standard — 94.5 % Ni — 3.3 % Cr — 1 % Mn — 0.4 % Traces & impurities · 0.8 %

Logarithmic scale, 0.01 % to 100 % — every value here compares directly, decade by decade.

| Element | % by weight |
|---|---|
| C | 0.11–0.17 |
| Si | ≤ 0.4 |
| Mn | 0.3–0.6 |
| P | 0.025 |

| Mo | 0.2–0.3 |
| Ni | 3–3.5 |

Carbon Silicon Manganese Phosphorus Sulfur Chromium Molybdenum Nickel

0.01 % 0.1 % 1 % 10 % 100 %

The scale is logarithmic, not the element’s raw share of the alloy — the only honest way to fit 0.01 % and 100 % in one picture, and it means every value here can be compared with every other.

| Element | As published source text, verbatim | Min% by weight | Max% by weight | Bound |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| C | 0,11-0,17 | 0.110 | 0.170 | Range |
| Si | ≤0,40 | — | 0.400 | Max |
| P | 0,025 | 0.025 | 0.025 | Exact |

| Ni | 3,00-3,50 | 3.000 | 3.500 | Range |
| Mo | 0,20-0,30 | 0.200 | 0.300 | Range |

The published column is the source string byte-for-byte, decimal comma and all; Min and Max are the parsed bounds. Elements not listed have no value on file — they are omitted, never inferred.

## Predicted transformation temperatures

This grade's composition falls outside the published model's validated range (a low-alloy composition window), so no transformation temperature is predicted here.

## Physical & mechanical properties

Density 7,85 g/cm³ Exact

Transformation point Ac1 700 °C Exact

Transformation point Ac3 810 °C Exact · Ac3(Acm)

Transformation point Ar3 400 °C Exact · Ar3(Arcm)

Weldability difficult to weld As published: hard weldability.

Flake sensitivity susceptible As published: predisposed

Temper brittleness not susceptible As published: not predisposed

An absent property means we hold no value for it — it is left out rather than estimated, interpolated from a neighbouring grade, or filled from a handbook. It does not mean the property is undefined for the material.

Every figure holds only for the condition on its own row. Values are never merged across conditions or across sources, never averaged, and never interpolated between two rows. An em dash means no value on file — never zero. Figures are converted to the unit in the column header; the source’s own wording is kept and shown where the two differ.

## Heat treatment

Supply condition

- Soft annealing Steel product

Conditions the standard permits on delivery. No temperature or medium is published for these, so no order and no alternation is implied.

## Similar grades — and why

Selection rule, stated so you can disagree with it: same number class 1.6, a shared category, and a published range for Ni / Cr that overlaps this grade’s. These are neighbours in composition space — they are not equivalents, and none is claimed to be interchangeable with this grade.
