GX20Cr14 material is a stainless steel with a general level corrosion resistance, higher strength and higher hardenability than GX5CrNi13-4 and GX4CrNi13-4. It is mainly used for cold extrusion and cold heading process forming parts. It can replace chrome-manganese alloys such as GX2CrMnNi, which save materials and is suitable for smaller and medium parts with higher requirements on strength and surface gloss.
GX20Cr14 material has a chromium content of around 14%, with a more balanced composition than other stainless steel grades. It is also perfect for parts requiring high strength and medium wear resistance, so it is widely used in the hardware industry such as automobile and motorcycle hardware industry, tools hardware industry, daily hardware industry, building hardware industry, furniture hardware industry and so on.
GX20Cr14 material is mainly used by the tool, molds and fastener industries. This material is capable of medium to long-term service at medium temperatures and atmospheres which are both corrosive and oxidizing. Very high resistance to abrasion is also a key feature of this material, making it highly suitable for applications requiring strong wear resistance.
Compared to other stainless steels, GX20Cr14 Material has superior strength, makes it an ideal choice for making light weight parts used for automobiles, ships, aircraft and so on. Its superior strength can also decrease the probability of a parts failure in long time applications. Additionally, its high oxidation resistance often makes it ideal for situations in which a part will be exposed to extreme high temperatures, which can quickly break down other more susceptible materials.
The welding performance of GX20Cr14 material is at the same level as GX5CrNi13-4 and GX4CrNi13-4. It is suitable for many argon arc welding and gas welding, with good welding performance. GX20Cr14 is usually used in automotive engine and gear parts, particularly gearbox and transmission shafts. It is also considered an ideal material for aircraft high-strength shafts and non-magnetic components.
In the production of parts such as gears, shafts and axles, GX20Cr14 material is often used. It is also a commonly used material for parts that require high strength and wear resistance. Its superior strength and wear resistance have made it a popular choice for various types of parts, both small and large. Additionally, GX20Cr14 material is easy to form and offers good corrosion resistance. Even in applications with a high corrosive environment, GX20Cr14 material can be used without fear of the parts breaking down or failing.
