Bohler L533 is the „Extra Low Interstitials“ version of the classic Ti-6Al-4V alloy with special high purity and lower content of oxygen and iron.

Nickel-Chromium-Cobalt-Molybdenum-Alloy, used for gas turbin components and temperautes up to 1100°C.

BÖHLER L718AMS is a corrosion and heat resistant nickel alloy – precipitation hardenable – in the form of bars, forging and forging stock. High resistance to creep and stress-rupture up to 1300°F (704°C) and oxidation resistance up to 1800°F (982°C). High duty parts and components for oil & gas and CPI applications, components for automotive, gas turbines, aerospace engines, high-speed airframe parts such as disks, buckets, spacers and high temperature bolts and fasteners.

BÖHLER N400 is a stainless soft martensitic Cr steel with 4% nickel with molybdenum addition and medium corrosion resistance in media with only a low chloride content. To achieve the best possible corrosion resistance with BÖHLER N400, it is essential to polish the surfaces concerned. Good mechanical properties in the quenched and tempered condition. This makes this material very suitable for use in turbine and power plant construction. Very good low-temperature properties. Recommended temperature of use: – 60 to 350°C. Use for valves, pumps, compressors, centrifuges, hydroelectric machines, turbines, reactor technology, shipbuilding, chemicals. Special heat treatment to max. 23 HRC is required for sour gas enviroment in petroleum engineering.

BÖHLER N404 is a stainless, soft martensitic Cr steel with 5% nickel and molybdenum addition with higher corrosion resistance than that of stainless steels of type 1.4313. The molybdenum addition also permits limited use in the maritime sector. BÖHLER N404 is particularly insensitive to intergranular corrosion and very resistant to fatigue and stress corrosion cracking and offers good mechanical properties in the quenched and tempered condition. This makes this material very suitable for use in the oil and gas sector, e.g. for fittings, pumps, compressors, centrifuges, hydropower machinery, reactor technology, shipbuilding, chemicals, petroleum technology, aviation and refrigeration technology. Very good low-temperature properties. Recommended application temperature from – 60 to 350°C. Special heat treatment to max. 23 HRC is required for sour gas stress in petroleum technology. In order to achieve the best possible corrosion resistance, the relevant surfaces must be polished.

This specification covers a corrosion and heat resistant steel in the form of bars, wire, forgings and forging stock. It is an austenitic, precipitation hardenable, iron-nickel-chromium-molydenum-titanium steel of ESR quality. Alloying elements of aluminium and titanium allow this material to undergo precipitation hardening (ageing) through the formation of intermetallic phases. The addition of molybdenum increases the mechanical properties and resistance to creep at high temperatures. These products have been typically used for parts in power generation engineering i.e. gas turbines requiring moderate strength up to 704 °C (1300 °F) and oxidation resistance up to 816 °C (1500 °F), but their use is not limited to such applications.

Components featuring elevated high-temperature strength for use in thermal engines and power plants, such as turbine blades, turbine discs, screws, bolts, pins and shafts.
