Abstract

Abstract A high temperature low alloy steel having a chemical composition consisting essentially of between about (i) 0.05 - 0.25% C, (ii) 0.05 - 0.80% Si, (iii) 0.40 - 1.30% Mn, (iv) 0.30 - 0.20% Mo, (v) 0.002 - 0.015% N in solid solution, (vi) less than 0.010% Sol. Al, (vii) 0 - 0.70% Cr, (viii) 0 - 0.10% V, and (ix) the balance being Fe + incidental impurities. The steel is preferably subjected to a normalizing heat treatment to obtain a high strength steel useful for extended service at temperatures between 400* and 500*C.
