EN 10085 Grade 34CrAlNi7 quenched and tempered (+QT)

EN 10085 Grade 34CrAlNi7 quenched and tempered (+QT) introduction

The nitriding steel 34CrAlNi7 can undergo quenchhardening and is used for heavy machine parts, piston rods, plunger pistons, spindles with particularly large dimensions.
The steel contains a nitride agent (Cr and Al) which contributes through the nitriding process or the nitro-carburization process with N or N and C to a higher:
- case hardness
- abrasion resistance
- fatigue strength
and
- corrosion resistance.
It is used for forged construction components: quench-hardened, mechanically processed and treated thermo-chemically (for example nitriding).
The steel with an increased Al-content is susceptible to increased case decarbonization. The forging requires sufficient additives for processing so that the finished construction component can undergo the nitriding process without decarburization.
