20Mn High Carbon Structural Steel
20Mn High Carbon Structural Steel is a medium carbon steel used for structural purposes in buildings, bridges, ships and other types of strong structures. It has a higher yield strength as compared to low carbon steels, making it an ideal choice when a larger load bearing capacity is required.
The chemical composition of 20Mn High Carbon Structural Steel is 0.17-0.23% carbon, 0.90-1.20% manganese, 0.50-0.80% silicon, 0.035% phosphorous, 0.04% sulfur, and 0.15-0.30% nitrogen. When carburizing or heat treating, the addition of phosphorus or sulfur can enhance the mechanical performance of the steel. It is a good material for machinery parts and machine frame components with higher strength requirements.
Compared to other structural steels, 20Mn High Carbon Structural Steel is not recommended for welding due to its high hardness. Its thermal conductivity and electrical conductivity are both low so it does not have good heat transfer properties. It has excellent hot workability, meaning it can be cold formed and can be quenched and tempered easily.
20Mn High Carbon Structural Steel has good wear resistance, impact resistance, and excellent fatigue properties. It is used for applications such as shafts, gears, valves, and fasteners. It is also used to produce springs, which are widely used in automobiles, heavy machinery, and other industry machines.
This steel is widely used in applications requiring good cold formability and high strength. It is commonly used in the construction of bridges, ships, buildings, and other strong structures. It is a great choice for those looking for superior strength and load bearing capacity.
20Mn High Carbon Structural Steel is a great choice for applications requiring higher yield strength and longer life. Since it has excellent hot workability and is readily available, it is often used for applications that require machining and fabrication. It is also used for applications that require heat treatment, as it can be heat treated to increase its strength and durability.
For those who are looking for a reliable and long lasting structural steel, 20Mn High Carbon Structural Steel is the perfect choice. With its superior strength and load bearing capacity, it is an ideal choice for those looking for a durable and dependable steel. With its good wear resistance, fatigue properties and thermally conductive properties, it is sure to provide the highest return on investment.
