45NiCrMo16 Steel: A Guide to Alloy Tool Steel 

When your applications demand exceptional toughness, uniform hardness, and high strength through large cross-sections, you need a specialized alloy steel. 45NiCrMo16 steel, also known as DIN 1.2767, is a high-performance nickel-chromium-molybdenum alloy engineered for the most demanding tooling and structural components. Its unique properties ensure reliability under extreme stress, impact, and fatigue. Nifty Alloys LLC supplies certified 45NiCrMo16 steel in bars, plates, and forgings to manufacturers and engineers worldwide. We provide materials that meet your precise technical requirements for critical projects. 

What is 45NiCrMo16 Steel? 

45NiCrMo16 is a high-grade alloy tool steel renowned for its remarkable combination of toughness and strength. As a member of the nickel-chromium-molybdenum steel family, it provides superior performance where other steels may fail. Its balanced alloying design gives it excellent through-hardening capabilities, meaning you achieve consistent hardness from the surface deep into the core, even in very large components. 

The key to its performance lies in its composition. The high nickel content ensures exceptional toughness and impact resistance. Chromium and molybdenum contribute to its high hardenability, wear resistance, and strength at elevated temperatures. This makes 45NiCrMo16 an ideal choice for manufacturing heavy-duty parts that must withstand severe operational conditions. You will find it used extensively for tools, large molds, high-stress dies, industrial shafts, and other critical components where failure is not an option. Nifty Alloys LLC stocks 45NiCrMo16 steel to provide you with a reliable supply for these essential applications.
