What is EN36 Steel (655M13)

EN36 is a high-specification nickel-chromium case hardening alloy steel renowned for its unique combination of properties. Its formulation provides high core strength, excellent toughness, and superior case hardenability, making it a preferred material for components subjected to significant stress, shock loads, and wear. The alloy is designed for carburizing, a heat treatment process that introduces carbon into the surface layer. This creates an extremely hard and wear-resistant outer case while maintaining a strong, ductile, and fatigue-resistant core. This dual characteristic makes EN36 alloy steel indispensable for critical engineering applications where component failure is not an option.

As a leading EN36 steel supplier in UAE , Nifty Alloys LLC ensures that all materials conform to strict international standards. Below are the typical chemical composition and mechanical properties that define the performance of EN36.

Key Properties & Features

EN36 (655M13) steel delivers a range of technical benefits that make it suitable for high-performance applications. Its engineered properties provide reliability and longevity for critical mechanical parts.

• Deep Case Hardening Response: The alloy chemistry allows for a consistent and deep hardened case (up to 62 HRC) during the carburizing process, ensuring maximum surface durability.
• Excellent Core Toughness and Fatigue Resistance: The tough, ductile core resists shock loads and prevents crack propagation, significantly extending the service life of components under cyclic stress.
• High Surface Hardness After Carburizing: The carburized surface offers outstanding resistance to wear, abrasion, and contact fatigue, which is essential for gears and bearings.
• Good Machinability Before Heat Treatment: In its annealed or normalized state, EN36 can be readily machined into complex shapes, allowing for precision manufacturing before the final hardening treatment.
• Dimensional Stability After Hardening: EN36 exhibits predictable and minimal distortion after quenching and tempering, which is critical for maintaining tight tolerances in finished parts.
• Strong Resistance to Shock and Wear: The combination of a hard case and a tough core gives EN36 an exceptional ability to withstand sudden impacts and continuous abrasive forces.
