Working with 1.4919-CD

Is 1.4919 easy to machine?

Machines like 316 — gummy, work-hardening chip; use rigid setups, positive-rake coated carbide, 40–120 m/min, heavy feed and copious coolant to avoid glazing.

Can 1.4919 be welded?

Weldable by TIG/MIG/SAW with 316L/16-8-2 filler and low heat input; boron increases hot-cracking risk, so keep interpass < 150 °C, minimise restraint and control ferrite in the weld metal.

Can 1.4919 be formed, bent or molded?

Excellent cold formability with high work-hardening — allow extra springback and interstage anneal at 1050–1100 °C; hot work at 1150–1200 °C, finish above 900 °C, then solution anneal and quench.

What surface finishes work on 1.4919?

Pickle and passivate (HNO3/HF) after hot work or welding; electropolishing gives the best surface for steam/nuclear cleanliness. Anodising is not applicable.

1.4919-CD — frequently asked

What is 1.4919-CD used for?

1.4919-CD is typically used for nuclear reactor internals, spent fuel storage baskets, neutron shielding components and chemical process equipment. In short: boron-modified 316 variant; neutron absorption with Mo corrosion resistance; nuclear specialty stock.

What is the yield strength of 1.4919-CD?

1.4919-CD has a typical yield strength of 480 MPa (69.6 ksi) and a tensile strength of 700 MPa (102 ksi) — stronger than 75% of stainless steel grades. Strength varies by condition: see the 5 listed tempers.

Is 1.4919-CD easy to machine?

Reasonably — machinability is rated fair (45/100, better than 84% of stainless steel grades). Machines like 316 — gummy, work-hardening chip; use rigid setups, positive-rake coated carbide, 40–120 m/min, heavy feed and copious coolant to avoid glazing.

Can 1.4919-CD be welded?

Yes — weldability is rated good (65/100). Weldable by TIG/MIG/SAW with 316L/16-8-2 filler and low heat input; boron increases hot-cracking risk, so keep interpass < 150 °C, minimise restraint and control ferrite in the weld metal.

What surface finishes work on 1.4919-CD?

Pickle and passivate (HNO3/HF) after hot work or welding; electropolishing gives the best surface for steam/nuclear cleanliness. Anodising is not applicable.

Can 1.4919-CD be formed, bent or molded?

Excellent cold formability with high work-hardening — allow extra springback and interstage anneal at 1050–1100 °C; hot work at 1150–1200 °C, finish above 900 °C, then solution anneal and quench.

What is the maximum service temperature of 1.4919-CD?

1.4919-CD is rated for continuous use to about 450°C (842 °F). Strength falls off well before that limit — check the elevated-temperature data for load-bearing parts.

What is the difference between 1.4919-AT and 1.4919 CW-HH?

AT is the default condition — standard supply condition for tube, plate and forgings — maximum corrosion resistance and ductility, basis of EN creep-rupture data. CW-HH: heavily cold-worked small-diameter tube or strip where strength, not creep life, governs; not used above ~400 °C. Yield strength is 270 MPa in AT versus 620 MPa in CW-HH.
