The most-used names for this grade.About Resistance heating alloys
Resistance heating alloys are metallic alloys designed to generate heat when an electric current passes through them. They combine electrical resistance with stability during prolonged heating, making them suitable for heating elements in furnaces, ovens and industrial equipment.
This describes the material class as a whole. Always confirm the individual grade against the standard before ordering.

Chemical composition
7 elements on file · weight %What this alloy is
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.

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.
