5CrNi2MoV

5CrNi2MoV is a grade designated under GB. Its recorded composition includes C 0.5–0.6%, Cr 0.8–1.2%, Mn 0.6–0.9%, Ni 1.5–1.8% and Mo 0.35–0.55%. No cross-standard equivalents are recorded for this grade yet. Recorded mechanical properties include HB ≤ 255.

Iron — the balance, never listed by a standard — 95.2 %Ni — 1.7 %Cr — 1 %Mn — 0.8 %Traces & impurities · 1.4 %

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 Acm716°C
Predicted Bs480°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.
