The equivalent carbon content concept is used on ferrous materials, typically steel and cast iron, to determine various properties of the alloy when more than just carbon is used as an alloyant, which is typical. The idea is to convert the percentage of alloying elements other than carbon to the equivalent carbon percentage, because the iron ...
The carbon content of 304L (UNS 30403) is restricted to a maximum of 0.035%, which prevents sensitization during welding. Sensitization is the formation of chromium carbides along grain boundaries when stainless steel is exposed to temperatures in the approximate range of 480–820 °C (900–1,500 °F).
X46Cr13 is the European Norm name for a common martensitic stainless steel with the numeric name 1.4034. It is equivalent to American Iron and Steel Institute standard 420C. It has the highest carbon content of the SAE 420 series. [1] [2] [3]
Outside of the US it is commonly known as "A2 stainless steel", in accordance with ISO 3506 (not to be confused with A2 tool steel). [6] The Japanese equivalent grade of this material is SUS304. Type 304L—same as the 304 grade but lower carbon content to increase weldability. Is slightly weaker than 304.
D2 is a high-carbon, high-chromium die steel and is the highest carbon alloy tool and die steel typically used in knife making. [ citation needed ] With a chrome content of 12%, some call it a "semi-stainless", because of the lack of free Chromium in solution, even though it is defined by ASM and ANSI as stainless, which contains at least 11.5% ...
UNS K11547 is T2 tool steel; UNS S17400 is ASTM grade 630, Cr-Ni 17-4PH precipitation hardened stainless steel; UNS S30400 is SAE 304, Cr/Ni 18/10, Euronorm 1.4301 stainless steel; UNS S31600 is SAE 316; UNS S31603 is 316L, a low carbon version of 316. The digits "03" were assigned since the maximum allowed carbon content is 0.03%; UNS C90300 ...
Carbon steel is a steel with carbon content from about 0.05 up to 2.1 percent by weight. The definition of carbon steel from the American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI) states: no minimum content is specified or required for chromium , cobalt , molybdenum , nickel , niobium , titanium , tungsten , vanadium , zirconium , or any other element to ...
The relative importance of the various alloying elements is calculated by finding the equivalent carbon content of the material. The fluid used for quenching the material influences the cooling rate due to varying thermal conductivities and specific heats. Substances like brine and water cool the steel much more quickly than oil or air. If the ...
