EN 10269 Grade 42CrMo4 Soft-Annealed Steel – High Strength & Wear Resistance
Steel 42CrMo4 is suitable for high-stress components (also large forged parts) in vehicle, engine and machine engineering with high wear resistance and very favorable core properties ( e.g. crankshafts, pinions, balance shafts). The steel shows a high resistivity to static and dynamic loading. Lowest working temperature -40 °C Further application for mounting elements at increased and lower temperatures.
