Each one is itself a route that leads back here. ## Chemical composition 10 elements on file · weight % What this alloy is Fe Cr Mo Mn Iron — the balance, never listed by a standard — 84 % Cr — 12.3 % Mo — 1.5 % Mn — 0.8 % Traces & impurities · 1.4 % Logarithmic scale, 0.01 % to 100 % — every value here compares directly, decade by decade. | Element | % by weight | |---|---| | C | 0.1–0.15 | | Si | ≤ 0.5 | | Mn | ≤ 0.8 | | P | ≤ 0.025 | | S | ≤ 0.015 | | Cr | 11–13.5 | | Mo | 1.2–1.8 | | Ni | 0.05–0.3 | | V | 0.1–0.3 | | Nb | 0.25–0.55 | Carbon Silicon Manganese Phosphorus Sulfur Chromium Molybdenum Nickel Vanadium 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 | 0.1 - 0.15 | 0.100 | 0.150 | Range | | Si | max 0.5 | — | 0.500 | Max | | P | max 0.025 | — | 0.025 | Max | | S | max 0.015 | — | 0.015 | Max | | V | 0.1 - 0.3 | 0.100 | 0.300 | Range | | Cr | 11 - 13.5 | 11.000 | 13.500 | Range | | Mn | max 0.8 | — | 0.800 | Max | | Ni | 0.05 - 0.3 | 0.050 | 0.300 | Range | | Nb | 0.25 - 0.55 | 0.250 | 0.550 | Range | | Mo | 1.2 - 1.8 | 1.200 | 1.800 | 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 1 conditions · 3 values By heat-treated condition**no delivery state stated** source `splav` | Heat-treated condition | Rm N/mm² | Re N/mm² | A5% | |---|---|---|---| | Blank for pipe | 640 | 490 | 12 | Every figure holds only for the condition on its own row. Values are never merged across conditions or across sources, never averaged, and never interpolated between two rows. An em dash means no value on file — never zero. Figures are converted to the unit in the column header; the source’s own wording is kept and shown where the two differ. ## Looking for this grade under another name?
