Chung Metal provides Stainless Steel XM19 (Nitronic-50) forgings from our Da Nang plant for uses requiring high strength, corrosion resistance, and toughness. XM19 has high nitrogen levels coupled with the austenitic stainless steel qualities, which make it ideal for marine, aerospace, and chemical applications. Our forging operations provide clean microstructure, certified properties, and strict dimensional control.
XM19 commonly contains ~20–22% Cr, ~11–13% Ni, high nitrogen (~0.10–0.20%), and molybdenum or manganese as an option. Tensile mechanical strength is commonly ~750–950 MPa, yield strength slightly lower, and elongation ~30–40%. Outstanding toughness, non‑magneticity, and superior pitting resistance in chlorides. Excellent weldability, corrosion resistance, and fatigue life.

The forging process for Stainless Steel XM19 typically takes several hours, depending on the size and complexity of the part. Heating, shaping, and cooling stages contribute to the overall duration.
The ideal temperature range for forging Stainless Steel XM19 is between 2100°F to 2200°F (1149°C to 1204°C). It's important to maintain proper cooling to avoid distortion or cracking.
Yes, Stainless Steel XM19 (a high-strength alloy) can be forged into custom shapes. It offers excellent formability, allowing manufacturers to create parts with specific dimensions and designs as needed.
XM19 forgings are applied in shafts, fasteners, structural parts, marine and offshore hardware, chemical plant equipment, and in exposed parts to aggressive sea environments. Also in pump and valve bodies, aerospace connectors, and in parts requiring both excellent mechanical and corrosion performance.
