## Chemical composition

 8 elements on file · weight %

What this alloy is

Fe Cr Mn Mo

Iron — the balance, never listed by a standard — 78.5 % Cr — 16.5 % Mn — 1.5 % Mo — 1.1 % Traces & impurities · 2.4 %

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

| Element | % by weight |
|---|---|
| C | 0.33–0.45 |
| Si | ≤ 1 |
| Mn | ≤ 1.5 |
| P | ≤ 0.03 |
| S | ≤ 0.03 |
| Cr | 15.5–17.5 |
| Mo | 0.8–1.3 |
| Ni | ≤ 1 |

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 | 0.33-0.45 | 0.330 | 0.450 | Range |
| Si | ≤1 | — | 1.000 | Max |
| P | ≤0.03 | — | 0.030 | Max |
| S | ≤0.03 | — | 0.030 | Max |
| Cr | 15.5-17.5 | 15.500 | 17.500 | Range |
| Mn | ≤1.5 | — | 1.500 | Max |
| Ni | ≤1 | — | 1.000 | Max |
| Mo | 0.8-1.3 | 0.800 | 1.300 | 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

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

**GB /T 1299-2025**

Single operation Test specimen

- Quenching 1000–1040 °C

    Cooling Oil

Supply condition

- Quenching Test specimen
- Annealing Supply condition

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