20CrMnMoH

20CrMnMoH is a grade designated under GB. Its recorded composition includes C 0.17–0.23%, Si 0.17–0.37%, Cr 1.05–1.4%, Mn 0.85–1.2% and Ni ≤ 0.3%. No cross-standard equivalents are recorded for this grade yet. Recorded mechanical properties include HB ≤ 217.

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

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.

Predicted Ae3805°C

Predicted Acm500°C
Predicted Bs517°C

These four temperatures are a CALCULATION from this grade's own composition, using the published Li, Niebuhr, Meekisho & Atteridge (1998) model — never a measurement, and computed from the UPPER BOUND of each element's specified range, not a mid-range figure. Where this grade also has a measured transformation point (Ac1, Ac3, Ar1, Ar3) on file, it is shown separately, in Physical & mechanical properties, and is never replaced by the predicted figures here — Ae (predicted, equilibrium) and Ac/Ar (measured, on heating or cooling) are different physical quantities and can differ by tens of degrees; a mismatch between the two is not an error in either.

Physical & mechanical properties

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.

Properties by condition

0 conditions · 0 values

1 further values are held for this grade under a condition the source did not name — a bound with no quantity attached. They are withheld rather than shown against a guessed condition.

Heat treatment

Supply condition

  • Annealing or Tempering

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