16MnCr5 Round Bar

Product Description

16MnCr5 Round Bar

Introduction:
16MnCr5 is a low-alloy steel widely used in case-hardening applications. It offers an excellent balance of surface hardness and core toughness, making it ideal for producing wear-resistant components such as gears, shafts, and other machinery parts.

Key Features and Benefits:

1. Case Hardening Capability:

   • Provides a hard and wear-resistant surface while maintaining a tough and ductile core.

2. Good Machinability:

   • Allows for precise and efficient machining processes, ideal for complex component manufacturing.

3. Enhanced Wear Resistance:

   • Highly resistant to surface wear and fatigue, increasing the lifespan of components.

4. Excellent Toughness:

   • High core toughness ensures reliable performance under dynamic and static loads.

5. Versatile Heat Treatment Options:

   • Can undergo carburizing, hardening, and tempering to meet specific application requirements.

6. Weldability:

   • Can be welded with proper preheating and post-weld heat treatment.

Chemical Composition (Typical):

• Carbon (C): 0.14“0.19%
• Silicon (Si): 0.17“0.37%
• Manganese (Mn): 1.00“1.30%
• Chromium (Cr): 0.80“1.10%
• Phosphorus (P): ‰ 0.035%
• Sulphur (S): ‰ 0.035%

Mechanical Properties:

• Tensile Strength: 650“880 MPa
• Yield Strength: ‰400 MPa
• Elongation: ‰12%
• Surface Hardness (after Case Hardening): 58“62 HRC

Applications:

1. Automotive Components:

   • Commonly used in the production of gears, crankshafts, and camshafts requiring high surface hardness.

2. Industrial Machinery:

   • Ideal for manufacturing bushings, rollers, and shafts in industrial equipment.

3. Power Transmission Systems:

   • Used in gearboxes and transmission components where wear resistance is critical.

4. Construction Equipment:

   • Suitable for load-bearing components like couplings and axles in construction machinery.

5. General Engineering:

   • Used in applications demanding a combination of toughness and surface wear resistance.

Heat Treatment Processes:

1. Carburizing: Improves surface hardness and wear resistance.
2. Tempering: Enhances toughness while maintaining hardness.
3. Annealing: Improves machinability and reduces internal stresses.
