Al-6XN combines the characteristics of its stainless-steel family with grade-specific alloying and heat-treatment behavior suited to its intended service.
High nickel/chromium/molybdenum or strengthening additions provide enhanced service performance.
Molybdenum and nitrogen additions improve resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion in many chloride environments.
Selected for chemical-processing, marine and high-temperature applications.
Mechanical properties depend on product form, heat treatment and specification.
Al-6XN is selected for engineered components and bolting where the material characteristics of this grade match the service environment.
Al-6XN is considered for chemical and process equipment when its grade-specific corrosion, strength and temperature characteristics meet the service requirement.
Al-6XN is considered for marine and offshore hardware when its grade-specific corrosion, strength and temperature characteristics meet the service requirement.
Al-6XN is considered for heat exchangers and piping when its grade-specific corrosion, strength and temperature characteristics meet the service requirement.
Al-6XN is considered for high-performance bolting when its grade-specific corrosion, strength and temperature characteristics meet the service requirement.
Match the alloy to the exact corrosive chemistry and temperature.
Use welded-condition corrosion data where applicable.
For bolting, check galling, preload retention and thermal-expansion compatibility.
The commonly listed Werkstoff / EN cross-reference for Al-6XN is 1.4547. Treat this as a grade comparison, not a guarantee of interchangeability. Verify chemistry, product form, condition and governing specification against the supplier certificate before substitution.
