## 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.

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Withdrawn designation no longer current — a separate column from the two above, so a name can be same grade and withdrawn at once.

What this alloy is

Fe Cr Al Mn

Iron — the balance, never listed by a standard — 80.1 % Cr — 14 % Al — 4.3 % Mn — 1 % Traces & impurities · 0.7 %

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

| Element | % by weight |
|---|---|
| C | ≤ 0.1 |
| Si | ≤ 0.5 |

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 | ≤0,10 | — | 0.100 | Max |
| Al | 3,50-5,00 | 3.500 | 5.000 | Range |
| Si | ≤0,50 | — | 0.500 | Max |
| P | 0,045 | 0.045 | 0.045 | Exact |
| S | 0,03 | 0.030 | 0.030 | Exact |
| Cr | 13,0-15,0 | 13.000 | 15.000 | Range |
| Mn | ≤1,00 | — | 1.000 | 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, 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.
