34CrNiMo6

All

General Information

34CrNiMo6 is a quenching and tempering steel with high strength, high toughness and good hardenability. Used for large axles, machine components, tools and high strength fasteners.

The steel can be induction hardened and it is weldable under certain conditions. Through hardenability to appr. 100 mm diameter bar with oil quenching.

356D - Standard steel variant

356Q - IQ (isotropic quality) variant.

6499 - low sulphur variant of 34CrNiMo6

6507 - M-steel variant of 34CrNiMo6

IQ-Steel^®

IQ-Steel® is an isotropic quality ultra clean steel optimized for high fatigue strength under multi axial loading.
