This grade’s own name recorded in our sources as this grade’s own designation under that standard.

Indicative taken from a published cross-reference table; a close match, not a guarantee of interchangeability. Verify against the mill certificate before ordering.

Withdrawn designation no longer current — a separate column from the two above, so a name can be same grade and withdrawn at once.

What this alloy is

Fe Cr Ni Nb

Iron — the balance, never listed by a standard — 58.3 % Cr — 25 % Ni — 13 % Nb — 0.9 % Traces & impurities · 2.9 %

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

| Element | % by weight |
|---|---|
| C | ≤ 0.1 |
| Si | 0.6–1 |
| Mn | ≤ 0.55 |
| P | ≤ 0.03 |
| S | ≤ 0.02 |
| Cr | 24–26 |
| Ni | 12–14 |
| Al | 0.4–0.9 |
| Ti | 0.5–0.9 |
| Nb | 0.7–1.1 |

Carbon Silicon Manganese Phosphorus Sulfur Chromium Nickel Aluminium Titanium Niobium

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 | max 0.1 | — | 0.100 | Max |
| Al | 0.4 - 0.9 | 0.400 | 0.900 | Range |
| Si | 0.6 - 1 | 0.600 | 1.000 | Range |
| P | max 0.03 | — | 0.030 | Max |
| S | max 0.02 | — | 0.020 | Max |
| Ti | 0.5 - 0.9 | 0.500 | 0.900 | Range |
| Cr | 24 - 26 | 24.000 | 26.000 | Range |
| Mn | max 0.55 | — | 0.550 | Max |
| Ni | 12 - 14 | 12.000 | 14.000 | Range |
| Nb | 0.7 - 1.1 | 0.700 | 1.100 | 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

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

## 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.
