EN24T Alloy Steel supplier | Nifty Alloys

<h2>EN24T Alloy Steel Supplier &amp; Stockist in UAE</h2><p>EN24&nbsp;is usually supplied in the finally heat-treated condition (quenched and tempered to “T” properties) up to a limiting ruling section of 250mm, which is superior to grades 605M36, 708M40 or 709M40 – see properties below. Please refer to our selection guide for comparisons. EN24 is a very popular grade of through-hardening alloy steel, which is readily machinable in the “T” condition. (Refer to our machinability guide). EN24T is most suitable for the manufacture of parts such as heavy-duty axles and shafts, gears, bolts, and studs. EN24T can be further surface-hardened typically to 58-60 HRC by induction or nitride processes, producing components with enhanced wear resistance. In addition to the above, EN24T is capable of retaining good impact values at low temperatures, hence it is frequently specified for harsh offshore applications such as hydraulic bolt tensioners and shipborne mechanical handling equipment. EN24 sections larger than 250mm may still be available in the quenched and tempered condition, but it should be noted that a fall-off in mechanical properties may be apparent approaching the center of the bar. It is therefore recommended that larger sizes are supplied in the annealed (softened) condition and that quenching and tempering are carried out after initial stock removal. This should achieve better mechanical properties towards the core.</p>

EN24 steel is widely used in gears, pinions, shafts, and spindles in the automotive and machine tool industries. Production of parts such as locomotives, cranes, rolling mills, coal cutters, etc. Die casting and hot metal processing, such as mold support, racks and gears, needle angle die casting, Hot stamping of stamping dies, aluminum and steel stamping die beds, low temperature nuts, bolts and rivets. Widely used in plastics, rubber molds, hobs and combination mold buckles, mold stop pins, etc.

This steel is shocked in the annealed condition, to render machining possible, and must be heat treated as follows: harden in air (or oil for larger sections over 2½” diameters) from a temperature of 810°C / 830°C. Temper, if desired, at a suitable temperature nor exceeding 250°C.

<table class="tablepress"><tbody><tr><td>Carbon</td><td>0.26-0.34%</td><td>Silicon</td><td>0.10-0.35%</td></tr><tr><td>Nickel</td><td>3.90-4.30%</td><td>Manganese</td><td>0.40-0.60%</td></tr><tr><td>Chromium</td><td>1.10-1.40%</td><td>Phosphorous</td><td>0.050% max</td></tr><tr><td>Molybdenum</td><td>0.20-0.40%</td><td>Sulphur</td><td>0.050% max</td></tr></tbody></table>

Heat the steel carefully to the forging temperature of 1000-1100°C, soak well. After forging, cool slowly in a furnace to 100°C maximum and anneal immediately.

To obtain the softest condition heat carefully to 630-650°C. Soak for a minimum of 2 hours, then cool in the furnace or in air. It is advisable to repeat this treatment to obtain the best machining characteristics.

Where the machining operations have been severe, we recommend stress relieving EN30B alloy steel before finish machining and hardening. Heat carefully to 630-650°C then cool in the furnace or in still air.

Heat uniformly to 810-830°C and when thoroughly soaked at this temperature cool in air or quench in oil according to mass. Hardening from neutral salt baths will help to prevent scaling or decarburization and is strongly recommended. Pre heat at 300-400°C, raise to the hardening temperature of 810-830°C, quench into salt standing at 300-320°C. Withdraw and cool in air. Alternatively, tools may be vacuum hardened. If desired, hardened and tempered tools can be cyanide hardened to give a shallow carburized case to die surfaces with increased hardness values up to Rockwell C56-60. Temper as soon as tools are hand-warm.

Re heat to the relevant tempering temperature. Soak for at least 2 hours per 25mm of ruling section. Withdraw from the furnace and cool in still air. Tempering between 275-450°C is not advised as tempering within this range will reduce the impact value.<table class="tablepress"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Temperature [°C]</strong></td><td>150</td><td>250</td><td>350</td><td>450</td></tr><tr><td><strong>Hardness [HRc]</strong></td><td>49</td><td>47</td><td>44</td><td>38</td></tr></tbody></table>

Typical Mechanical Properties*

If it is necessary to soften the EN36 for machining between the carburising and subsequent heat treatment stages, heat to 640-650°C. Soak at this temperature for 1 to 2 hours and cool slowly in the furnace or in air.

Softening

Heat treatment temperatures, including rate of heating, cooling and soaking times will vary due to factors such as the shape and size of each EN36 steel component. Other considerations during the heat treatment process include the type of furnace, quenching medium and work piece transfer facilities. Please consult your heat treatment provider for full guidance on heat treatment of EN36 case hardening steel.

EN40B Nitriding Steel supplier | Nifty Alloys

Top-quality EN40B nitriding steel supplier in the UAE & across the globe; we supply premium nitriding steel solutions tailored to your needs.

EN40B Nitriding Steel

EN40B (722M24) is a chromium-molybdenum based engineering steel grade from Thames Stockholders which is often delivered in the hardened and tempered condition. It benefits from good wear resistance and high fatigue strength. This can increase a tensile strength of up to 1075 N/mm². Nitriding yields a hard and wear resistant casing resulting in an engineering material which delivers good fatigue and shock resistance. The nitriding process is usually performed at a comparatively low temperature which brings about a scale-free surface with minimal distortion.
EN40B (722M24) can function in atmospheres of up to 500 °C before any loss in surface hardness is noticed. EN40B is delivered in the hardened and tempered ‘T’ condition. This nitriding steel also offers a good combination of toughness and ductility. When supplied in the ‘T’ condition, EN40B is ideal for applications necessitating high creep resistance and high tensile strength.
EN40B (722M24) has become a widely used engineering material in industries such as automotive, textiles, and aerospace. It is also widely used by billet crankshaft manufacturers.

Typical applications include connecting rods, extruders, valve stems, dies, ring &amp; plunger, Screw and barrel for injection moulding machines
