What is 34CrNiMo6?

34CrNiMo6 is a quenching and tempering steel with high strength, high toughness and good hardenability. Used for large axles, machine components, tools and high strength fasteners. The steel can be induction hardened and it is weldable under certain conditions.

What is EN24 material?

EN24 is a very high strength steel alloy which is supplied hardened and tempered. The grade is a nickel chromium molybdenum combination – this offers high tensile steel strength, with good ductility and wear resistance characteristics.

How hard is EN24T?

It is a widely used engineering steel with a tensile strength of 850/1000 N/mm². It has reasonably good impact properties at low temperatures, whilst it is also suitable for a variety of elevated temperature applications. Flame or induction hardening of EN24T can give a case hardness of 50 HRc or higher.

Can you nitride EN24T?

EN24T is used in components such as gears, shafts, studs and bolts, its hardness is in the range 248/302 HB. EN24T can be further surface-hardened to create components with enhanced wear resistance by induction or nitriding processing.

What is the difference between EN8 & EN24?

EN8: It is a steel grade which has 0.4% carbon and 0.8% of manganese. EN24:It is a steel which has Ni-Cr-Mo as an alloying elements. EN 24 is generally used in the volume hardened condition.

What is difference MS and EN8?

Mild steel is weldable, very hard, and very durable even though it rusts. Mild steel is less brittle, and able to flex to avoid breakage. EN8 steel bar or threaded steel bar is a tough-hardening medium carbon steel that is usually used for creating axles, shafts, gears, bolts, and studs.

Which is better EN8 vs EN9?

It is found the MS has the least wear when compared to EN8 and EN9. The microhardness of MS is higher than EN8 and EN9, thus making it more wear-resistant than EN8 and EN9. The coefficient of friction in the dry sliding condition is found to be constant throughout the experiment.

What is the difference between carburizing and nitriding?

Carburizing and Nitriding are the two techniques used in differential metal structure hardening process. The main difference between carburizing and Nitriding is that in carburizing, carbon is diffused to the steel surface whereas, in Nitriding process, nitrogen is diffused to the steel surface.

What type of steel is EN24T?

through-hardening alloy steel
EN24T steel is a popular grade of through-hardening alloy steel due to its excellent machinability in the “T” condition. EN24T is used in components such as gears, shafts, studs and bolts, its hardness is in the range 248/302 HB.

What material is 20MnCr5?

20MnCr5 is a case-hardening steel with low carbon content but good hardenability reaching good wear resistance due to high surface hardness after hardening. The small grain size benefits in good ductility and fatigue strength. Suitable for gearboxes and axle gears.

What is OHNS steel?

OHNS steel is a general-purpose tool steel that is typically used in applications where alloy steels cannot provide sufficient hardness, strength, and wear resistance. Chemical composition of OHNS is Carbon 0.94%, Manganese 1.2%, Silicon 0.30%, Chromium 0.50% and Vanadium 0.15%.

Is stainless steel stronger than steel?

Strength of steel and stainless steel: Steel is slightly stronger than stainless steel as it has lower carbon content. Also, it is weaker than steel in terms of hardness.
