GB4237/4238 1Cr17Mn6Ni5N stainless steel

1Cr17Mn6Ni5N stainless steel is a nickel-section steel, which is a substitute for 1Cr17Ni7 steel. This kind of steel is magnetic after cold working and is especially suitable for the manufacture of railway vehicles.

GB4237/4238 1Cr17Mn6Ni5N stainless steel features:

 

Strength and hardness: It has high tensile strength and hardness, which guarantees its excellent performance under large loads and wear.

 

Corrosion resistance: Due to the specific proportion of chromium, nickel and other alloying elements, it has good corrosion resistance, suitable for a variety of corrosive environments.

 

Processing properties: After proper heat treatment, its metallographic structure is characterized by Austenitic type, which makes it have good plasticity and toughness during processing.

 

GB4237/4238 1Cr17Mn6Ni5N stainless steel chemical composition:

 

Chromium (Cr) : roughly between 16% and 18%, which is a key element to ensure corrosion resistance of stainless steel.

 

Nickel (Ni) : In the range of 3.5% to 5.5%, the nickel element helps to improve the corrosion resistance and toughness of stainless steel.

 

Manganese (Mn) : With a content between 5.5% and 7.5%, manganese has an important impact on the strength and hardness of stainless steel.

 

The content of carbon (C), silicon (Si), phosphorus (P), sulfur (S) and other elements are also clearly specified, and these elements have an impact on the performance and processability of steel.

 

Regarding the delivery status of 1Cr17Mn6Ni5N, usually it will be delivered in a hot rolled, annealed or normalized state, which may vary according to user requirements and manufacturer's process regulations.

 

1Cr17Mn6Ni5N stainless steel is widely used in many fields because of its unique properties:

 

Railway vehicle: Because of its high strength, hardness and good corrosion resistance, it is especially suitable for the manufacture and maintenance of railway vehicles.

 

Construction machinery: can be used to manufacture excavators, loaders and other equipment parts.

 

Automotive: Used to manufacture key components such as gears and bearings.

 

Ships: In the Marine industry, it can be used to manufacture ship power plants, shafting and other key components.

 

Petrochemical: In the petrochemical industry, it can be used to manufacture reactors, heat exchangers and other equipment.

 

In addition, 1Cr17Mn6Ni5N stainless steel can also be used to manufacture water heaters, chemical equipment, food processing equipment, etc., and it is also suitable for devices and parts with strict density requirements.
