2.4819 Product Description

Overview

2.4819 is the German material number for a nickel-molybdenum-chromium-tungsten corrosion-resistant alloy. This datasheet presents the material within the Werkstoff-Nummer (DIN / EN) designation system.

By far the most widely used member of the C family, 2.4819 is a wrought, low-carbon corrosion-resistant alloy offering universal corrosion resistance across a wide range of severe environments. Its high molybdenum and nickel contents give exceptional resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion and reducing media such as hydrochloric and sulfuric acids, while its chromium content provides resistance to oxidizing media. It is one of the few materials able to withstand wet chlorine gas, hypochlorite and chlorine dioxide. The very low carbon and silicon contents minimise grain-boundary carbide precipitation during welding, so the alloy resists intergranular attack in the weld heat-affected zone and can be used in the as-welded condition. It is a single-phase, solid-solution alloy supplied in the solution-annealed condition.

Typical applications include chemical and petrochemical processing, flue-gas desulfurisation and pollution-control scrubbers and stack liners, pulp-and-paper, and waste-treatment equipment.

Property Value Unit
Density 8.89 g/cm³
Melting range 1325–1370 °C
Elastic modulus 205 GPa
Coefficient of thermal expansion (20–100 °C) 11.2 µm/m·°C
Thermal conductivity (20 °C) 9.8 W/m·K
Specific heat (20 °C) 427 J/kg·K
Structure Austenitic (FCC), single phase

2. Chemical Composition (wt %)

Element Symbol Min % Max % Role in Alloy
Nickel Ni Balance Base element; reducing-media resistance
Molybdenum Mo 15.0 17.0 Pitting / crevice / reducing-acid resistance
Chromium Cr 14.5 16.5 Oxidizing-media resistance
Tungsten W 3.0 4.5 Reducing-media / localized-corrosion resistance
Iron Fe 4.0 7.0 Residual
Cobalt Co 2.50 Residual
Vanadium V 0.35 Residual
Carbon C 0.010 Very low; minimises carbide precipitation

3. Mechanical Properties

Solution-annealed condition, per EN reference data for W.Nr. 2.4819.

Condition Property Value
Solution annealed Tensile strength (Rm) ≥690 MPa
Solution annealed 0.2% proof strength (Rp0.2) ≥283 MPa
Solution annealed Elongation (A5) ≥40 %
As-welded Corrosion resistance Retained (low carbon)
Elastic modulus 205 GPa

Values per EN reference data; the very low carbon content preserves corrosion resistance in the weld heat-affected zone. Confirm against the inspection certificate (EN 10204).

4. Corrosion Resistance

Environment Performance Notes
Reducing acids (HCl, H₂SO₄) Excellent High molybdenum + nickel
Wet chlorine / hypochlorite / ClO₂ Excellent One of few alloys that resist these
Pitting / crevice corrosion Excellent Molybdenum + tungsten
Stress-corrosion cracking Excellent High nickel content
Oxidizing acids (HNO₃) Good Chromium-bearing

The high molybdenum and tungsten content gives outstanding resistance in reducing and chloride-bearing environments — including wet chlorine, hypochlorite, ferric and cupric chlorides, contaminated acids and seawater — with exceptional resistance to localized attack; resistance in strongly oxidizing acids is good but lower than higher-chromium grades.

5. Heat Treatment

A single-phase solid-solution alloy; not hardenable by precipitation. Properties are set by solution annealing.

Solution Anneal Solution anneal at approximately 1120 °C and rapidly quench (water or rapid air cool) to dissolve secondary phases and retain maximum corrosion resistance. The alloy is not strengthened by heat treatment; cold work raises strength.

6. Weldability and Joining

Excellent weldability; readily welded by the gas-tungsten-arc and gas-metal-arc processes with matching filler, and used in the as-welded condition owing to its very low carbon content. No post-weld heat treatment is normally required.

Welding Process Applicability Filler / Consumable
GTAW / TIG Excellent Matching filler
GMAW / MIG Good Matching filler
SMAW / stick Good Matching electrode

Weld with matching filler and clean surfaces; the alloy may be used as-welded without post-weld heat treatment.

7. Machinability and Fabrication

Machining Guidelines

Parameter Recommendation
Machinability Difficult; work-hardens, rigid setups, sharp tooling
Speeds Slow speeds, positive feeds, no dwelling
Coolant Ample coolant

Forming Processes

Process Notes
Cold forming Good; work-hardens, anneal between heavy operations
Hot forming 1010–1175 °C; solution anneal afterward
