Material number · Europe · 2 designations # 1.4855 1.4855 is the material number of the grade also listed as GX30CrNiSiNb24-24. It is a material in the category Heat-resistant cast steels. We list 2 designations recorded for this grade, in the standards DIN / EN. - ***Material no.* **1.4855**** - [*Category* **Heat-resistant cast steels · 82 grades**](/categories/heat-resistant-cast-steels "Category: Heat-resistant cast steels · 82 grades") - *Designations* **2** [Search](/search "Steel grade search")[Inquiry](/inquiry?material=2affe30c-0f88-45a4-991d-71fd5a1f1b6a "Inquiry")[**Datasheet as PDF** Print-ready A4 document **Generating …** **Download started** **Try again**](/materials/material-no/1.4855.pdf "Datasheet as PDF") ## If you came for one of these The most-used names for this grade. - [DIN / EN GX40CrNiSiNb24-24 This grade’s own name](/materials/din-en/gx40crnisinb24-24 "DIN / EN GX40CrNiSiNb24-24") ## About Heat-resistant cast steels Heat-resistant cast steels are cast ferrous alloys formulated for service at elevated temperatures, where resistance to softening and thermal degradation is important. They are used for furnace components, heat-treatment equipment and other high-temperature plant parts that require cast shapes and dependable mechanical performance during heating. This describes the material class as a whole. Always confirm the individual grade against the standard before ordering. ## Also known as 2 designations · 1 standards · nothing hidden 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 Withdrawn designation no longer current — a separate column from the two above, so a name can be same grade and withdrawn at once.

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 Density 7,85 g/cm³ Exact 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. ## Looking for this grade under another name?
