T5 Mechanical Properties
| Tensile Strength | Yield Strength | Elongation | Hardness |
| ≥ 415 MPa (60 ksi) | ≥ 205 MPa (30 ksi) | ≥ 30% | ≤ 179 HB |
Key Features & Advantages
1.High-Temperature Strength: Maintains excellent mechanical properties and creep resistance at elevated temperatures up to 650°C (1200°F)
2.Oxidation Resistance: 5% chromium content provides good resistance to scaling in oxidizing atmospheres
3.Weldability: Exhibits good welding characteristics with proper pre-heat and post-weld heat treatment
4.Cost-Effective Performance: Offers a balanced combination of high-temperature capability and economical pricing
5.Seamless Reliability: Cold-drawn manufacturing ensures superior surface finish and dimensional accuracy
Comparison with Related Grades
T5 vs. T9:
T9 contains 9% chromium, offering superior oxidation resistance and higher temperature capability, but at a higher cost. T5 provides an economical alternative for moderate temperature applications.
T5 vs. T11:
T11 (1.25% Cr) has lower chromium content, making T5 the preferred choice for applications requiring better oxidation resistance and higher temperature strength.
