X5NiCrTiMoVB25-15-2 Precipitation Hardening Stainless Steel Plate & Coil Introduction

X5NiCrTiMoVB25-15-2 (EN 1.4980) is an austenitic precipitation hardening (PH) stainless steel, often referred to as an iron-base superalloy. It combines high tensile and creep-rupture strength at elevated temperatures (up to approx. 700°C) with good oxidation resistance and corrosion resistance in many environments. The alloy achieves its strength through a solution annealed condition followed by an aging heat treatment, which precipitates finely dispersed gamma-prime (Ni3(Al,Ti)) phases. Key alloying elements include nickel and chromium for corrosion resistance, titanium and aluminium for precipitation hardening, and minor additions of molybdenum, vanadium, and boron for improved elevated-temperature properties. In the solution-treated condition, the material exhibits good ductility and formability, making it suitable for fabrication into complex components. Typical applications are found in aerospace, gas turbine, and automotive turbocharger industries where a combination of high strength, thermal stability, and moderate corrosion resistance is required. The material is also known under the trade name A286 and UNS S66286.

The specified chemical composition according to EN 10088-1 for grade X5NiCrTiMoVB25-15-2 (1.4980). These limits ensure the required precipitation hardening response and elevated-temperature strength. The alloy relies on a balance of nickel, chromium, titanium, and aluminium to form the strengthening gamma-prime precipitate. Boron and vanadium are present in small controlled amounts to improve grain boundary strengthening and high-temperature creep resistance. All values are maximum unless a range is given.

X5NiCrTiMoVB25-15-2 Precipitation Hardening Stainless Steel Plate & Coil Mechanical Properties

The mechanical properties of X5NiCrTiMoVB25-15-2 depend strongly on the heat treatment condition. The values below correspond to the solution-annealed condition (1D) as delivered for plates and coils according to EN 10088-2. This soft and ductile state allows further forming and fabrication. The material can subsequently be precipitation hardened (aged) to achieve high strength. Aging at 700-730 °C for 16 hours typically raises the yield strength to above 550 MPa and tensile strength to about 900-1100 MPa. The data shown are guaranteed minimum or maximum values for the solution-annealed condition for thickness ≤6 mm (transverse direction).

X5NiCrTiMoVB25-15-2 Precipitation Hardening Stainless Steel Plate & Coil Application Introduction

X5NiCrTiMoVB25-15-2 is selected for applications requiring high strength and creep resistance at temperatures from about -196°C up to 700°C, coupled with good oxidation resistance and moderate corrosion resistance in environments such as atmospheric, fresh water, and many chemical media. It is not recommended for strong reducing acids or chloride-rich environments where stress corrosion cracking can occur. The alloy is readily fabricated in the solution-treated condition and then hardened by a simple aging treatment. The material's non-magnetic nature and high electrical resistivity are additional benefits in some instrument applications.

Product Applications: Turbine wheels and blades, Aircraft engine casings and rings, Turbocharger wheels and shafts, High-temperature bolting and studs, Springs for elevated temperature service, Extrusion dies for aluminium, Superconducting magnet structural parts, Automotive exhaust valves

Notes:

All data is based on EN 10088-1 and EN 10088-2 standards and typical published values. For critical applications, specific material certifications should be obtained. The aging treatment commonly used is 720 °C ± 10 °C for 16 hours followed by air cooling. Higher strength can be achieved with modified aging cycles. Welding of this grade requires careful control to avoid hot cracking; recommended filler metal is matching composition 1.4980 or nickel-base fillers (e.g., ERNiCrCoMo-1). Post-weld heat treatment is generally required to restore properties. Magnetic permeability is typically < 1.01 in the solution-treated and aged conditions.
