Applications of 16NiCr4 round bar, hot-rolled, annealed
16NiCr4 steel in hot-rolled round bars stands out for its high nickel content, which gives the material superior toughness compared to other case-hardening steels. The presence of nickel significantly improves the material's impact resistance and impact energy.
This steel is particularly suitable for the production of components requiring high mechanical strength combined with excellent core toughness. It finds ideal application in the production of precision gears, transmission shafts and components for the aeronautical industry.
Supply in the annealed condition ensures excellent machinability, while the structure obtained from hot rolling guarantees uniform mechanical properties. After case-hardening treatment, the material develops high surface hardness while maintaining a particularly tough core.
