EN 10277-3 Grade 46S20: Quenched, Tempered, Cold Drawn Steel for High-Strength Applications

The free cutting case hardening steel 46S20 is used for bulk parts of high strength, especially for low ductility demands in transversal direction compared to other C-steels (e.g. C45). Cutting speed is increased but higher cracking risk according to rising C-content has to be considered. Application in car industry, apparatus, equipment and machine engineering (e.g. screws, nuts, small-size parts). As a bright steel product it is used in the form of bars, bright, straight, in various conditions (see DIN EN 10277 : 1999-10).
