Low carbon alloy case-hardening steel with excellent core toughness and high surface hardness after carburizing. Exhibits good wear resistance, fatigue strength, and impact resistance, making it suitable for heavily loaded components. Provides a tough core with a hard wear-resistant case.
Widely used for gears, pinions, shafts, camshafts, and transmission components. Suitable for automotive and engineering applications where high surface wear resistance and core toughness are required.
