SCM440 is a commonly used steel for the production of high strength fasteners. The products have the advantages of stable composition, low harmful elements, high purity of steel, small decarburization layer, [TJC STAINLESS]less surface defects and so on. When used, it is easy to conduct spherospherification annealing, low cold heading cracking rate, stable heat treatment quality, uniform hardness, widely used in the engine, mold and other industries.
Material Name: Alloy Structural Steel
Brand: SCM440(Japanese [TJC STAINLESS]brand, see JIS G4053-2008, similar to Chinese brand 42CrMo)
Corresponding: 42 crmo4
Features and Scope of Application:
It is a medium hardenability steel. After heat treatment, it has good strength and comprehensive mechanical properties, good technology and high yield. The highest operating temperature is 427℃. Used as steam turbine fasteners.
Characteristics and Application
1. Good quenching, deep quenching can be carried out, rather than the surface quenching of anti-saw lock on the market
2. Less tendency to temper brittleness
3. High temperature [TJC STAINLESS]processing, beautiful after processing
4. Good welding performance
5 impact absorption performance is good, hammer hit up will have a rebound feeling, can not be violent damage advantages:
(1) Good processability
(2) Good shock absorption performance
(3) Easy to weld
