SDP3

SDP3 is a grade designated under JIS. Its recorded composition includes C ≤ 0.12%, Si 0.25–0.75%, Cr 0.3–1.25%, Ni ≤ 0.65% and Cu 0.25–0.6%. No cross-standard equivalents are recorded for this grade yet. Recorded mechanical properties include Rm 450 N/mm², Re 315 N/mm² and A 15%.

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 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.
