Main Properties

• Surface hardening: It has a high ability to surface-harden, enhancing its resistance to wear and fatigue.
• High strength: It has high tensile strength and good yield strength.
• Good plasticity: It has good formability and cold forming ability.
• Hardness: It provides high hardness after heat treatment.

Uses

It is widely used in many applications such as:

• Automotive industry: In the manufacture of gears, shafts, axle shafts, and other parts that require strength and durability.
• Machinery industry: In the manufacture of tools, molds, and other mechanical parts.
• Construction industry: Manufacture of structural parts that require high strength.

Advantages

• High durability: Provides a long service life for parts made from it.
• Corrosion resistance: Protects parts from premature wear.
• Stress resistance: It resists high loads and repeated stresses.
