Abstract
A low carbon Martensite structure is obtained in a low chrome-nickel casting steel consisting of less than 0.06 percent C, 4.75 to 5.75 percent Cr, 2.75 to 3.50 percent Ni, 0.45 to 0.65 percent Mo, less than 1.0 percent each of Mn and Si, and less than 0.04 percent of each P and S with the remainder essentially Fe. The resulting material has excellent weldability and handling characteristics without preheat. It is superior in this regard to the present ASTM A217 Gr 56 alloy which it is intended to replace.
