N08020 — ASTM Equivalent

Holding a datasheet that specifies N08020 (UNS)? The valve-grade equivalent, its properties, and certified supply of the matching ASTM grade.

What is the ASTM equivalent of N08020?

N08020 is a UNS designation corresponding to ASTM A351 CN7M / ASTM A182 (Alloy 20 / Carpenter 20) (Alloy 20 (Carpenter 20Cb-3)) and A351 CN7M (Alloy 20 Cast (CN7M)) for industrial valve service. The full grade data is below - equivalence is by nominal chemistry and mechanical class, so confirm composition and heat-treat condition against the governing standard before substituting in critical service.

Alloy 20 (Carpenter 20Cb-3) - both form.
