En8
En8 is an unalloyed medium carbon steel which is used in applications where better properties than mild steel are required but where
the costs do not justify the purchase of a steel alloy. En8 can be heat treated to provide a good surface hardness and moderate wear
resistance by flame or induction hardening processes. From the automotive trade to wider general engineering applications. En8 is a
popul;ar steel in industry.

APPLICATIONS:
Hollow bar is suitable for wide variety of general Engineering purposes: Whenever a circular component is being
manufactured, hollow bar is a potential raw material; whether the component is a plain bush or a complex precision part.
The steel specification brings together many of the properties required for the production of hollow components, including
bosses, bushes, cylinders, rams, piston rods, hubs, shafts, spacers, collars, couplings and axles.
To a greater or lesser extent ST 52 may be used throughout all industries in which machining is involved, with applications
frequently found in automotive, earth moving, agricultural and machine tool industries and in equipment used for drilling,
mining and mechanical handling.

APPENDIX - 1
Definitions
TENSILE TEST
Test pieces are used for establishing mechanical properties. When the test is done. Four values (1, 2, 3 and 4) are obtained.
1. TENSILE STRENGTH
The stress required to rupture in tension (pull), expressed in Magapascals(MPa). Also called Breaking Strength, Ultimate
Strength and Ultimate Tensile Strength.
2. YIELD STRENGTH
The stress at which a material exhibits a specified limiting set, commonly taken by the offset method as 0.20 per cent of the
specimen's original length, expressed in Megapascals.
3. ELONGATION
The amount of permanent stretch, after fracture in tension, expressed as a percentage of the specimen's original length.
4. REDUCTION OF AREA
The difference between the original cross sectional area of a specimen and the least cross sectional
area after rupture in tensile tests, expressed in percentage of the original cross-sectional area.
5. IMPACT STRENGTH
A measure of toughness. The force to fracture a notched specimen with a single blow. Expressed in Joules (J) or foot-
pounds of energy absorbed. Designated as "Charpy" or "Izod" Impact Strength, depending on the testing machine used
6. HEAT TREATMENT
An operation or combination of operations involving the heating and cooling of a metal to obtain certain desirable conditions
or properties, and not for the sole purpose of mechanical working.
7. ANNEALING
Heating and cooling primarily:
a) To induce softness
b) To relieve internal stresses
c) To obtain the optimum combination of strength and ductility.
8. DUCTILITY
The property which permits deformation under tension without rupture. Values of "Elongation" and
"Reduction of Area" are generally taken as a measure of Ductility.
9. HARDNESS
Resistance to plastic deformation by indentation, penetration, scratching or bending. Expressed by means of "Brinell",
"Rockwell", "Scleroscope" or "Vickers" Hardness numbers, depending upon the testing machine used and should be read in
conjunction with specified mechanical required.
11. TEMPERING
Bringing about an intermediate condition in steel between being ductile and very hard, to provide a desired combination of
hardness and ductility, to achieve prescribed mechanical properties.
12. QUENCHING
This is the process carried out after material has been heated to the required hardening temperature. The material is then
immersed in specific cooling agents to attain hardnesses which is dependant on the cooing speed which is possible for the
hardening temperature concerned.

SOME FACTS ABOUT ALLOYING AND ACCOMPANYING ELEMENTS IN STEEL
Al. Aluminium
This is the most powerful de-oxidiser used which also combines with Nitrogen, thereby reducing the susceptibitily to strain
ageing. Small additions assist fine-grained structure. As Aluminium forms very hard nitrides with Nitrogen, it is usually an
alloying element in nitriding steels. Aluminium improves the scale resistance and is therefore often used as an alloying
element in ferritic heat resisting steels.
C Carbon
Carbon is the most important and influential alloying element in steel. In addition to Carbon every unalloyed steel contains
Silicon, Manganese Phosphorus and Sulphur which occur unintentionally during manufacture. The addition of further
alloying elements to achieve special effects and intentional increase of Manganese and Silicon contents, result in alloy steel.
With increased Carbon content the strength and hardenability of steel increase but its ductility, forgeability and machineability
reduces. The Carbon content in steel has virtually no effect on the steel corrosion resistance to water, acids and hot gases.
Cr. Chromium
Chromium increases the hardenability of steel while the ductility is effected minimally. Higher Chrome content in steel
increases its corrosion resistance, and by forming carbides the edge holding quality of steel increases. The tensile strength of
steel increases by 8 100 N/mm² for every 1% Chrome added. The yield strength also increases but the notch impact value
reduces.
Mn. Managanese
Manganese increases the strength of steel to a lesser degree than Carbon while it favourably influences the forgeability,
weldability and markedly increases the hardness penetration depth.
Mo. Molybdenum
While Molybdenum improves the tensile strength and increases the heat resistance and weldability of steel, the forgeability of
steel with a high Molybdenum content decreases. When used in combination with Chromium and Nickel, Molybdenum may
produce high yield points and tensile strength values.
Ni. Nickel
By adding Nickel to steel the notch toughness is increased significantly and is therefore alloyed for increasing toughness in
case-hardening, heat-treatable and subzero toughness steels. Nickel combined with Chromium ensures good through
hardening. Chrome-Nickel steel are stainless, heat resistant and resistant to scaling. Nickel does not impair the welding
properties of steel.
P Phosphorus
Phosphorus is normally regarded as being detrimental to steel and every endeavour is therefore made to keep Phosphorus
content in high grade steels to maximum of 0.03 to 0.05%.
Pb. Lead
Lead is added in free cutting steels in amounts of 0.20 0.50%. Because of its fine homogenous distribution, formation of
shorter chips and clean faces of cut is achieved., thus improving machineability. The stated lead content does not effect the
mechanical properties of steel.
S Sulphur
Sulphur produces the most pronounced segregation of all steel accompanying elements. It leads to red shortness or hot
shortness. Sulphur is added to steels for automatic machining in quantities of up to 0.40%. This reduces the friction on the tool
cutting edges by means of a lubricating action, thereby increasing tool life. It also produces shorter chips during machining.
Sulphur also increases susceptibility to welding cracks in steel.
Si. Silicon
Silicon, like Manganese is contained in all steels as iron ore contains Silicon in various quantities, depending on overall
composition. Silicon is also absorbed from the furnace refractory linings during the melting process. However, only steels
containing more than 0.40% of Silicon are called Silicon steels. Silicon is a deoxidize and promotes graphite precipitation, it
also increases the strength and wear resistance of steel while significantly increasing the elastic limit, thus being a useful
alloying element in spring steels. Because of Silicons ability to greatly reduce electrical conductivity, extensive use is made of
it in electrical steels.
V Vanadium
Vanadium is used as a primary grain refiner in the manufacture of steel. It is also a strong carbide former, thus providing
increased wear resistance, edge holding and high temperature strength. Vanadium is therefore used primarily as an alloying
element in high speed, hot forming and creep resistant steels.
