TECHNICAL CARD 42CrMo4

PRINCIPAL APPLICATION FIELDS


Heat treatable steel:
Alloyed heat treatable steel with a typical tensile strength of 900 -1200 N/mm.
Used for highly stressed components, where the combination of high strength with
tenaciousness is of utmost importance.
EX: axles, drive rods, crankshafts, pinions, gearwheels, linings, springs, saw blades, knifes
and scissors, bolt.
