Datasheet updated 2012-08-02 17:37:05 (supersedes all previous editions)
Sandvik 253 MA* is an austenitic chromium-nickel steel alloyed with nitrogen and rare earth metals. The grade is characterized by:
- High creep strength
- Very good resistance to isothermal and, above all, cyclic oxidation
- Very good resistance to combustion gases
- Good structural stability at high temperatures
- Good weldability
- The grade can be used at temperatures up to about 1150°C (2100°F)
Standards
- ASTM F45
- UNS S30815
- EN number 1.4835
Product standards
Suitable for the production of flanges etc. according to ASTM A182 grade F45.
Certificates
Status according to EN 10 204 3.1
