Nickel 904L Characteristics

Corrosion Resistance – 904L has a higher Nickel and chromium count making it ideal for corrosion resistance. However, it still has a high amount of Iron which gives it the majority of it’s strength.

Chemical Composition – The primary elements are Nickel and Chromium which at a minimum represent ~23% and ~20% minimum. This means that corrosion resistance is the highest. Furthermore, in descending order: MO (4%), Co(2.5%), MN(2%), Si(1%), and Cu(1-2%). Then you are going to balance it with Iron which means it will range between~+47%.

Weldability/Machinability – The metal exhibits exceptional treatability and is effortlessly moldable and machinable, depending on specific requirements. Additionally, its balanced nature allows for precise adjustments to be made with ease.

The Rolex Difference – Rolex which had previously only used 904L nickel for certain parts of their watches, recently transitioned to completely 904L. This was because they needed a metal with a higher resistance to wear and tear and corrosion that they weren’t getting with 316L.
