Designation by Standards

Chemical Composition (in weight %)

Description
Alloy special steel.

Applications
Case hardening steels: Gear components of all kind and cog wheels. Open die steel forgings for general engineering purposes.

Physical properties (avarage values) at ambient temperature
Modulus of elasticity [10³ x N/mm²]: 210
Density [g/cm³]: 7.85
Thermal conductivity [W/m.K]: 20.0

Soft Annealing
