EN 10277-5 Grade 42CrMo4 cold drawn or turned and quenched and tempered introduction

Steel 42 CrMo 4 is suitable for high loaded parts (also heavy forged parts) of high wear resistance and very favorable core qualities (e.g. crankshafts, pinions, balancer shafts) in vehicle manufacturing, engine and machine engineering. The steel has a high specific static and dynamic load resistance. Lowest application temp. -40 °C.
