PROPERTIES AND EMPLOYEMENTS
IT IS AN EXCELLENT CASE-HARDENING STEEL THAT COMBINES A GOOD TOUGHNESS IN THE NUCLEUS WITH AN ELEVATED HARDNESS OF THE CASE-HARDENED LAYER.
IT CAN SUBSTITUTE STEELS WITH NICKEL-CHROMIUM, IT HAS A MEDIUM-LOW HARDENABILITY, FOR THIS REASON IT CAN GUARANTEE A GOOD RESISTANCE FOR A THICKNESS UP TO MM 20.
MOREOVER, IT HAS A GOOD MACHINABILITY AT THE SOFT-ANNEALED CONDITION.
