Performance Characteristics:
High strength, high tenacity, good hardenability, and high resistance to thermal properties.
Applications:
Used for the important quenched and tempered parts which request high strengh , high toughness and large section size, such as the transmission of the horizontal forging machine eccentric shaft, forging crankshaft.It is also used for manufacturing big sized important quenched-and-tempered parts which request good toughness and high strength. such as top load shaft ,steam turbine shaft, vane, and heavy-load transmission parts, fastening piece, crankshaft, gears etc.
