DIN / EN · Europe · 2 designations # G10Ni6 G10Ni6 is a designation in DIN / EN for the material held under material number 1.5621, also listed as GS-10 Ni 6. It is a material in the category Low-temperature structural steels.

Their resistance to brittle fracture at low temperatures makes them suitable for structures, pressure-containing equipment and other components exposed to severe cold. This describes the material class as a whole. Always confirm the individual grade against the standard before ordering. ## Also known as 2 designations · 1 standards · nothing hidden This grade’s own name recorded in our sources as this grade’s own designation under that standard. Indicative taken from a published cross-reference table; a close match, not a guarantee of interchangeability. Verify against the mill certificate before ordering. Withdrawn designation no longer current — a separate column from the two above, so a name can be same grade and withdrawn at once.

Each one is itself a route that leads back here. ## Chemical composition 6 elements on file · weight % What this alloy is Fe Ni Mn Si Iron — the balance, never listed by a standard — 97.1 % Ni — 1.6 % Mn — 0.7 % Si — 0.6 % Traces & impurities · 0.1 % Logarithmic scale, 0.01 % to 100 % — every value here compares directly, decade by decade. | Element | % by weight | |---|---| | C | 0.06–0.12 | | Si | ≤ 0.6 | | Mn | 0.5–0.8 | | P | 0.015 | | S | 0.015 | | Ni | 1.3–1.8 | Carbon Silicon Manganese Phosphorus Sulfur 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 | 0,06-0,12 | 0.060 | 0.120 | Range | | Si | ≤0,60 | — | 0.600 | Max | | P | 0,015 | 0.015 | 0.015 | Exact | | S | 0,015 | 0.015 | 0.015 | Exact | | Mn | 0,50-0,80 | 0.500 | 0.800 | Range | | Ni | 1,30-1,80 | 1.300 | 1.800 | 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 Not enough recorded composition to predict a transformation temperature for this grade — missing: Cr, Mo. ## Physical & mechanical properties Density 7,85 g/cm³ Exact 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. ## Similar grades — and why Selection rule, stated so you can disagree with it: same number class 1.5, a shared category, and a published range for Ni / Mn 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.
