1.7227 +QT - AT A GLANCE
What kind of steel is the 1.7225 +QT?
As a low alloyed steel does the 1.7227+QT (here in its tempered condition) need the alloyed chromium and molybdenum to elevate its strength and hardenability. The added sulphur gives this steel grade a better machinability. Its chromium content makes sure that this heat treatable steel can be hardened through while the added molybdenum offers an even strength and hardness.
The combination of mechanical properties and the machinability make this steel grade a good choice for many applications in many industries.
Properties
Heat treatable steel 1.7227+QT also known as the 42CrMoS4+QT is a low alloyed chromium-molybdenum-steel. This steel grade is characterised by its high strength, good toughness and hardenability. It can be used for machine and tool construction and many other industries due to the former meantioned properties.
- Excellent wear resistance
