Material number · Europe · 27 designations # 2.4068 2.4068 is the material number of the grade also listed as LC-Ni 99. It is a material in the category Nickel and cobalt alloys. We list 27 designations recorded for this grade, in the standards DIN / EN, UNS, BS, AFNOR, ISO, JIS, GB, GOST and PN. - ***Material no.* **2.4068**** - [*Category* **Nickel and cobalt alloys · 87 grades**](/categories/nickel-and-cobalt-alloys "Category: Nickel and cobalt alloys · 87 grades") - *Designations* **27** [Search](/search "Steel grade search")[Inquiry](/inquiry?material=d38a83e1-a86c-4293-a4fb-15082963c846 "Inquiry")[**Datasheet as PDF** Print-ready A4 document **Generating …** **Download started** **Try again**](/materials/material-no/2.4068.pdf "Datasheet as PDF") ## If you came for one of these The most-used names for this grade. - [DIN / EN LC-Ni 99 This grade’s own name](/materials/din-en/lc-ni-99 "DIN / EN LC-Ni 99") ## About Nickel and cobalt alloys Nickel and cobalt alloys are metallic materials whose properties are developed through nickel-, cobalt-, or combined alloying systems. They are characterised by strong resistance to corrosion, oxidation, wear, and loss of strength at elevated temperatures, making them suitable for turbine components, chemical-processing equipment, and other demanding high-temperature applications. This describes the material class as a whole. Always confirm the individual grade against the standard before ordering. ## Also known as 27 designations · 9 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 Withdrawn designation no longer current — a separate column from the two above, so a name can be same grade and withdrawn at once.

Each one is itself a route that leads back here. ## Chemical composition 9 elements on file · weight % Logarithmic scale, 0.01 % to 100 % — every value here compares directly, decade by decade. | Element | % by weight | |---|---| | C | ≤ 0.02 | | Si | ≤ 0.25 | | Mn | ≤ 0.35 | | S | 0.005 | | Ni | ≥ 99 | | Cu | ≤ 0.25 | | Ti | ≤ 0.1 | | Mg | ≤ 0.15 | | Fe | ≤ 0.4 | Carbon Silicon Manganese Sulfur Nickel Copper Titanium Magnesium Iron 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 | ≤0,02 | — | 0.020 | Max | | Mg | ≤0,15 | — | 0.150 | Max | | Si | ≤0,25 | — | 0.250 | Max | | S | 0,005 | 0.005 | 0.005 | Exact | | Ti | ≤0,10 | — | 0.100 | Max | | Mn | ≤0,35 | — | 0.350 | Max | | Fe | ≤0,40 | — | 0.400 | Max | | Ni | ≥99,0 | 99.000 | — | Min | | Cu | ≤0,25 | — | 0.250 | Max | 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: Ni, Cr, Mo. ## Physical & mechanical properties Density 8,89 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 2.4, a shared category, and a published range for Ni / Fe 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.
