Overview

EN 4630:2024 specifies the requirements for the aerospace-grade stainless steel X4CrNiMo16‑5‑1 (1.4418) in the form of air-melted, hardened and tempered forgings with maximum dimension De (D) ≤ 200 mm. Intended for aerospace applications, this CEN standard defines chemical composition, heat treatment, mechanical properties and inspection/acceptance criteria for parts with tensile strength 900 MPa ≤ Rm ≤ 1 050 MPa. It supersedes EN 4630:2014 and is linked to existing aerospace material specifications.

Key topics and technical requirements

  • Material designation: X4CrNiMo16‑5‑1 (EN 1.4418); other designation AIR: Z 8 CND 17‑04.
  • Melting method: Air melted (controls on cleanliness and inclusions).
  • Form & size: Forgings (rolled from forging stock per EN 4629); maximum De (D) ≤ 200 mm.
  • Heat treatment: Hardened and tempered - austenitizing 1 010 °C to 1 060 °C with quench (PQ, OQ or WQ), tempering 550 °C to 620 °C. Air quenching permitted for D ≤ 20 mm (where agreed).
  • Mechanical properties:
    • Tensile strength Rm: 900–1 050 MPa
    • Proof stress Rp0,2: ≥ 700 MPa
    • Elongation (A): typically ≥ 16% (depending on test piece and condition)
    • Hardness: specified HBW or HV ranges (alternative criteria optional)
  • Impact resistance: Notched Charpy values specified (e.g., ≥ 120 J at 20 °C; lower-temperature requirements noted).
  • Metallurgical criteria: δ‑ferrite ≤ 5%, retained austenite ≤ 10%, grain size G ≥ 5, inclusion content Category 2.
  • Inspection & testing: Referenced procedures include EN 4700‑006 (technical specification and test samples), EN 2951 (inclusions), EN 4050‑4 (ultrasonic acceptance criteria), EN ISO 643 (grain size), plus macro/microetching methods (ASTM/AMS references).

Applications and who uses this standard

  • Typical use: Critical aerospace structural and engine components where high-strength stainless forgings are required.
  • Primary users: Aerospace OEMs, forging manufacturers, metallurgists, procurement/specification engineers, quality assurance and certification teams, and material testing laboratories.
  • Practical value: Ensures consistent chemistry, heat treatment, mechanical performance and non‑destructive inspection criteria for high‑strength aerospace forgings, supporting traceability and interchangeability in aerospace supply chains.

Related standards

  • EN 4700‑006 (pre-production and production forgings - technical specification)
  • EN 4629 (forging stock for X4CrNiMo16‑5‑1)
  • EN 2951, EN 4050‑4, EN ISO 643
  • EN 4258, EN 4500‑005 (series organization and drafting rules)
  • Referenced aerospace/test practices: AMS 2315, ASTM A604 / E340 / E381

Keywords: EN 4630:2024, X4CrNiMo16‑5‑1, 1.4418, aerospace steel, hardened and tempered, air melted, forgings, 900–1050 MPa.
