EN353 CASE HARDENING STEEL | IS 15NiCr1Mo12 | DIN 15CrNi6 | Chromium Nickel Molybdenum Steel

EN 353 steel has a carbon content of 0.17 % and the commonest form of steel as it provides material properties that are acceptable for several automobile applications such as significant duty gear, shaft, pinion, camshafts and gudgeon pins. It’s neither outwardly brittle nor ductile due to its lower carbon content and lower hardness. Because the carbon content will increase, the metal becomes more durable and stronger.
Applications
Acceptable for many automobile applications such as heavy duty gear, shaft, pinion, camshafts, gudgeon pins / machining components etc.
