Exotic Alloys XM-19 Industrial Valves Overview
Zeon Exports supplies Exotic Alloy XM-19 (Nitronic 50, UNS S20910) industrial valves – ball, gate, globe and check types – a nitrogen-strengthened austenitic stainless steel with a PREN above 34, comparable to duplex 2205, and roughly double the yield strength of standard 316L.
Exotic Alloy XM-19 (Nitronic 50) Industrial Valves control and isolate flow in petrochemical and oil field process lines where higher strength than 316L is required. Its chromium, nickel, manganese, molybdenum and nitrogen composition gives excellent corrosion resistance that outperforms 316L and 317L in many media.
- PREN >34, on par with duplex 2205, exceeding standard 300-series grades
- Tensile ≥862 MPa, yield ≥379 MPa in the annealed condition
- EN 10204 3.1 certified, export-ready worldwide

Corrosion Resistance of Exotic Alloys XM-19
Exotic Alloy XM-19 Industrial Valves offer a corrosion profile that outperforms standard austenitic stainless in most media.
- General corrosion resistance: outperforms 316(L) and 317(L) across many chemical environments.
- Pitting and crevice resistance: PREN above 34, comparable to duplex 2205, giving better resistance than 316(L).
- Chloride SCC caution: not recommended for hot chloride ion environments, where it can be susceptible to stress corrosion cracking.
Heat Resistance of Exotic Alloys XM-19
Exotic Alloy XM-19 valves retain very good mechanical properties at both elevated and sub-zero temperatures. It cannot be hardened by heat treatment; strength is developed through solution annealing and, where higher strength is needed, controlled hot working. Confirm exact service limits against the governing standard and application before specifying.
Key Properties of Exotic Alloys XM-19 Industrial Valves
Beyond corrosion and heat performance, XM-19 valves offer these additional properties.
- Roughly double the yield strength of standard 316L
- Good toughness maintained at sub-zero temperatures
- Good weldability using matched filler metal
- Non-magnetic even after cold working
