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. ## Chemical composition 10 elements on file · weight % What this alloy is Fe Cr Ni Mn Iron — the balance, never listed by a standard — 65.8 % Cr — 16.5 % Ni — 13.5 % Mn — 1.5 % Traces & impurities · 2.7 % Logarithmic scale, 0.01 % to 100 % — every value here compares directly, decade by decade. | Element | % by weight | |---|---| | C | 0.04–0.1 | | Si | 0.3–0.6 | | Mn | ≤ 1.5 | | P | 0.035 | | S | 0.015 | | Cr | 15.5–17.5 | | Mo | 1.1–1.5 | | Ni | 12.5–14.5 | | V | 0.6–0.85 | | N | 0.06–0.14 | Carbon Silicon Manganese Phosphorus Sulfur Chromium Molybdenum Nickel Vanadium Nitrogen 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 | 0,04-0,10 | 0.040 | 0.100 | Range | | N | 0,06-0,14 | 0.060 | 0.140 | Range | | Si | 0,30-0,60 | 0.300 | 0.600 | Range | | P | 0,035 | 0.035 | 0.035 | Exact | | S | 0,015 | 0.015 | 0.015 | Exact | | V | 0,60-0,85 | 0.600 | 0.850 | Range | | Cr | 15,5-17,5 | 15.500 | 17.500 | Range | | Mn | ≤1,50 | — | 1.500 | Max | | Ni | 12,5-14,5 | 12.500 | 14.500 | Range | | Mo | 1,10-1,50 | 1.100 | 1.500 | Range | - 10xC≤1,20 - 10xC≤1,20 - 10xC≤1,20 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 / Ni 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.
