Composition in %
Narrower or other tolerance ranges in chemical composition have to be agreed before order is placed.

Material
Very common Quenched and Tempered alloyed engineering steel grade.
Characteristics

On hardening in oil a bar diameter of ~22 mm and on hardening in water a bar diameter of ~30 mm will have a
Transformation martenistic microstructure in the one of the bar dimensions. A martensitic / bainitic microstructure will be obatined
Characteristics in the core of the bar diameters up to 100 mm on hardening in oil and up to 150 mm on hardening in water
Transformation temperature : Acl ~ 720 o C; Ac3 : ~ 780 o C; Ms: ~350 o C

Parts for power train applications; cold formed fastener components; Shafts; Gears; Drill collars for the oil

If required, more limited hardenbility values on the lower range (HL) or higher range (HH) can be supplied. These
narrower limits have to be specifically ordered.
