## About High-temperature steels

High-temperature steels are steels designed to retain useful strength and structural stability during exposure to elevated temperatures. Their alloying systems provide resistance to oxidation, creep and loss of mechanical properties during prolonged heating, making them suitable for furnace components, heat exchangers, boilers and other hot-service equipment.

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

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Withdrawn designation no longer current — a separate column from the two above, so a name can be same grade and withdrawn at once.

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

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.

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

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 1.4, a shared category, and a published range for Cr / Mo 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.
