55SiMnVB spring steel is a low alloy spring steel which has excellent properties, good hardenability and high strength, good plasticity, low notch sensitivity and cold plastic deformation, good low fatigue performance and excellent welding performance.

55SiMnVB spring steel is most commonly used in the production of automobile springs, agricultural machinery springs, vibration reduction, vibration isolators, shock absorbers, and other spring products. The steel grade’s main alloying elements are silicon, manganese and vanadium, and the chemical composition is specified in accordance with ASTM, DIN or JIS standards.

55SiMnVB spring steel is most often supplied in the annealed state under the JIS or DIN classification. In this state, the steel has improved ductility and toughness and is easier to fabricate and form. Subsequent to forming, the steel is heat treated to secure the desired mechanical properties. There are two typical heat treatments applied to 55SiMnVB steel; annealing and normalizing.

Annealing is a heat treatment process used to improve the hardness, ductility, and toughness of materials. During this process, the material is heated to a relatively high temperature and then slowly cooled over a given period of time. The slow cooling process allows the molecules and atoms of the material time to reorganize and realign, resulting in a much softer material than before.

Normalizing is another heat treatment applied to 55SiMnVB spring steel. This process consists of heating the steel to a higher temperature and cooling it much more rapidly than in annealing. This process helps to strengthen the material by aligning the microstructure and may even be partially annealed due to the rapid cooling.

By using an appropriate heat treatment process, it is possible to increase the strength and yield strength of the 55SiMnVB spring steel. Hardening has been found to be the most effective heat treatment to increase the strength of the steel. The hardness of the steel will reach 45 HRC after the hardening process. However, the hardness of the steel should be determined by the specific application to ensure optimal results and performance.

55SiMnVB spring steel also exhibits good fatigue strength, which is the ability to resist deformation or cracking under cyclic loads. Research has shown that the fatigue strength of the steel increases when subjected to high temperatures and high strain. Therefore, it is important that the steel be hardened properly through the use of appropriate heat treatment processes.

55SiMnVB spring steel has many excellent qualities, and its characteristics can be enhanced through the use of appropriate heat treatment processes. By utilizing annealing and normalizing, it is possible to increase the ductility and toughness of the steel as well as to increase its hardness. Additionally, its exceptional fatigue strength makes it ideal for use in springs and other applications that require repeated use.

55SiMnVB spring steel is a kind of medium carbon and high silicon micro-alloyed spring steel. It has the characteristics of moderate strength, high fatigue performance and good comprehensive mechanical properties.

Heat treatment process of 55SiMnVB spring steel: the deformation amount during quenching is large, and the cooling rate should be controlled. The range of oil quenching temperature is 950~1020 ℃, and oil cooling is adopted. After quenching, the inner core and surface of the steel remain at an appropriate temperature size, and tempering is then performed. In order to obtain good mechanical properties and spring shape, quenching and tempering treatment should be paid attention to. The tempering temperature is relatively high, generally between 450 and 550℃.

The characteristics of 55SiMnVB spring steel are: a high silicon content, can enhance the strength of steel at high temperatures, moderate carbon content makes its durability and wear resistance better, boron addition can further improve its strength and hardenability. In addition, 55SiMnVB spring steel has excellent machinability, welding performance, corrosion resistance, fatigue strength and wear resistance, and has good hot and cold processability.

The application of 55SiMnVB spring steel is mainly automotive industry, which require springs with high temperature resistance and good wear resistance. In addition, 55SiMnVB spring steel can also be used in torsional springs in aircraft, as well as all kinds of spring springs.

In summary, 55SiMnVB spring steel is an ideal material for springs with high temperature resistance and wear resistance, which can be used in automotive industry and aircraft.
