What this alloy is

Iron — the balance, never listed by a standard — 79.4 %W — 6.3 %Mo — 5 %Cr — 4.1 %Traces & impurities · 5.3 %

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.

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

Not enough recorded composition to predict a transformation temperature for this grade — missing: Ni.

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

3 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.
