Overview

EN 4627:2022 (CEN) is a European aerospace material standard that specifies requirements for the stainless steel grade X4CrNiMo16‑5‑1 (1.4418) in the form of air‑melted, hardened and tempered forgings with a maximum dimension De ≤ 200 mm and a tensile strength Rm between 1 150 MPa and 1 300 MPa. The document defines metallurgy, heat treatment, mechanical properties, inspection and acceptance criteria tailored for aerospace applications. Note: other common designation - AIR: Z 8 CND 17‑04.

Key topics and technical requirements

  • Material designation and chemistry: The standard fixes the chemical composition for X4CrNiMo16‑5‑1 (1.4418); only the composition given in the standard applies.
  • Melting and form: Material must be air melted and supplied as forgings (forged from EN 4629 forging stock).
  • Size limit: Applicable to forgings with external dimension De ≤ 200 mm.
  • Heat treatment: Typical cycle specified as austenitizing at 1 010 °C – 1 060 °C (PQ, OQ or WQ) followed by tempering at either 375–405 °C or 480–550 °C; air quenching allowed for De ≤ 20 mm.
  • Mechanical properties: Representative acceptance levels include Rm 1 150–1 300 MPa, Rp0.2 ≥ 900 MPa (where required), and specified elongation minima (e.g., A ≥ 14 % for some test conditions).
  • Hardness and toughness: Hardened & tempered hardness ranges (typical HBW 341–401); impact energy minimums and notch directions are specified depending on test piece and condition.
  • Microstructure & quality controls: Limits on δ‑ferrite (≤5 %) and retained austenite (≤10 %); inclusion Category 2; grain size requirement (G ≥ 5); ultrasonic acceptance Class 2 for internal defects; macrographic and visual inspection requirements.
  • Testing & inspection: Referenced test methods include EN 4700‑006 for forging production and inspection, EN 4050‑4 (UT), EN 2950/2951 (macro/micro), and EN ISO 643 (grain size).

Applications and users

EN 4627:2022 is intended for manufacturers, purchasers and quality engineers in the aerospace and defence supply chain who specify or produce high‑strength stainless steel forgings. Typical users include:

  • Aerospace OEMs and tier‑1 suppliers specifying material for highly stressed forged components
  • Forging houses and heat‑treaters producing aerospace forgings to contractual specification
  • Metallurgists, materials engineers and inspection/QA teams responsible for acceptance testing and certification

Related standards

  • EN 4629 (forging stock for this steel)
  • EN 4700‑006 (technical specification for forgings)
  • EN 4050‑4, EN 2950, EN 2951, EN ISO 643
  • EN 4258 and EN 4500‑005 (series organization and drafting rules)

EN 4627:2022 helps ensure consistent, high‑strength stainless steel forgings for critical aerospace applications by combining defined chemistry, heat treatment windows and rigorous inspection criteria.
