## About Heat resistant steels

Heat resistant steels are alloyed materials designed to retain useful mechanical properties and resist oxidation or scaling during service at elevated temperatures. They are used for components in furnaces, boilers, heat exchangers and power-generation equipment exposed to hot gases or sustained heat.

This describes the material class as a whole. Always confirm the individual grade against the standard before ordering.

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Withdrawn designation no longer current — a separate column from the two above, so a name can be same grade and withdrawn at once.

Every designation on file is listed — no truncation, no “+ n more”. Each one is itself a route that leads back here.

## Chemical composition

 8 elements on file · weight %

What this alloy is

Fe Cr Ni Mn

Iron — the balance, never listed by a standard — 51.6 % Cr — 25 % Ni — 20.5 % Mn — 2 % Traces & impurities · 0.9 %

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

| Element | % by weight |
|---|---|
| C | 0.04–0.08 |
| Si | ≤ 0.7 |
| Mn | ≤ 2 |
| P | 0.035 |
| S | 0.015 |
| Cr | 24–26 |
| Ni | 19–22 |
| N | 0.1 |

Carbon Silicon Manganese Phosphorus Sulfur Chromium Nickel Nitrogen

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 | 0,04-0,08 | 0.040 | 0.080 | Range |
| N | 0,1 | 0.100 | 0.100 | Exact |
| Si | ≤0,70 | — | 0.700 | Max |
| P | 0,035 | 0.035 | 0.035 | Exact |
| S | 0,015 | 0.015 | 0.015 | Exact |
| Cr | 24,0-26,0 | 24.000 | 26.000 | Range |
| Mn | ≤2,00 | — | 2.000 | Max |
| Ni | 19,0-22,0 | 19.000 | 22.000 | 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

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.

## Properties by condition

 2 conditions · 7 values

By delivery state**no delivery state stated** source `steeljis`

| Delivery state | Rm N/mm² | Re N/mm² | A% | HB | HRB | HV |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Plate/Sheet Hot-rolled | 520 | 205 | 40 | — | — | — |
| Hot-rolled | — | — | — | 187 | 90 | 200 |

By delivery state**Soft annealed** source `steelnumber`

| Delivery state | HB |

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.

## Similar grades — and why

Selection rule, stated so you can disagree with it: same number class 1.4, a shared category, and a published range for Cr / Ni that overlaps this grade’s. These are neighbours in composition space — they are not equivalents, and none is claimed to be interchangeable with this grade.
