Overview
EN 4379:2007 (CEN) is a European aerospace material standard that specifies requirements for the heat‑resisting nickel alloy NI‑PH3601 (NiCr22Mo9Nb) in the form of solution‑treated forgings with a maximum envelope dimension De ≤ 200 mm. Prepared under the ASD‑STAN/CEN process, the standard defines chemical, metallurgical, mechanical and inspection requirements for forgings intended for high‑temperature aerospace service.
Key topics and technical requirements
- Material designation: NI‑PH3601 (chemical system NiCr22Mo9Nb). The standard sets the compositional limits and element controls appropriate for this nickel‑chromium‑molybdenum‑niobium alloy (detailed element limits are given in the standard text).
- Form and size: Forgings produced from specified forging stock; maximum envelope diameter De ≤ 200 mm.
- Delivery condition: Solution treated (heat treatment specified in the standard).
- Heat treatment: Solution treat at 950 °C to 1 040 °C, hold ≥ 1 h, followed by air cooling (AC) or faster.
- Melting method: Consumable electrode remelted (CER) to ensure clean melt quality.
- Mechanical properties: The standard specifies minimum tensile and proof stress, elongation and maximum hardness values for the delivery condition (e.g., proof stress and tensile strength minima and hardness ≤ 290 HB). Exact property limits are given by diameter range in the standard.
- Microstructure & defects: Grain‑size and external defect acceptance criteria (no cracks, laps or folds); permitted minor deviations are quantified.
- Testing & inspection: Test piece selection, sampling, dimensional and marking inspections reference EN 2860‑3 and the EN 4379 clauses for pre‑production and production forgings.
- Qualification: Product qualification and any special qualification programme to be agreed between manufacturer and purchaser.
Applications and users
EN 4379:2007 is targeted at aerospace supply chain stakeholders who specify, produce or qualify high‑temperature nickel alloy forgings, including:
- Aerospace OEMs and engine manufacturers specifying material for hot components
- Forging producers and heat‑treaters supplying NI‑PH3601 forgings
- Quality, procurement and metallurgical engineers responsible for material selection, inspection and certification
Typical applications include high‑temperature aerospace components and structural parts where heat‑resisting nickel alloys are required (see the standard for permitted uses and property requirements).
