EN 10277-5 Grade 42CrMoS4 soft annealed and cold drawn (+A+C)

EN 10277-5 Grade 42CrMoS4 soft annealed and cold drawn (+A+C) introduction

Steel 42CrMoS4 is suitable for high loaded parts in vehicle, engine and machine engineering with high wear resistance and favorable core qualities as well as enhanced workability (e.g. crankshafts, pinions, balance shafts). The steel shows a high specific resistance to static and dynamic load. Lowest application temperature -40°C.
As a bright steel product it is used in the form of bars, bright, straight, in various conditions (see DIN EN 10277 : 1999-10).
