Material number · Europe · 1 designation # 1.6985 1.6985 is the material number of the grade also listed as 28CrMoNiV4-9. It is a material in the category Others.

They are selected for applications requiring particular combinations of strength, hardness, toughness, wear resistance or resistance to demanding service conditions. This describes the material class as a whole. Always confirm the individual grade against the standard before ordering. ## Also known as 1 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 Withdrawn designation no longer current — a separate column from the two above, so a name can be same grade and withdrawn at once.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 computed from composition · °C Predicted Ae3 781 °C Predicted Ae1 735 °C Predicted Acm 541 °C Predicted Bs 495 °C These four temperatures are a CALCULATION from this grade's own composition, using the published Li, Niebuhr, Meekisho & Atteridge (1998) model — never a measurement, and computed from the UPPER BOUND of each element's specified range, not a mid-range figure. Where this grade also has a measured transformation point (Ac1, Ac3, Ar1, Ar3) on file, it is shown separately, in Physical & mechanical properties, and is never replaced by the predicted figures here — Ae (predicted, equilibrium) and Ac/Ar (measured, on heating or cooling) are different physical quantities and can differ by tens of degrees; a mismatch between the two is not an error in either. ## 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. ## Similar grades — and why Selection rule, stated so you can disagree with it: same number class 1.6, a shared category, and a published range for Cr / Mo 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.
