EN9 Grade Application:
EN9 steel is widely used in general engineering applications due to its strength and durability. Typical uses include:
- Shafts
- Axes
- Knives
- Bushes
- Crankshafts
- Screws
- Sickles
- Woodworking drills
- Hammers
EN9 Hardness:
EN9 can achieve Brinell hardness levels in the range of 201-302 HBW, depending on the condition and heat treatment.
EN9 Heat Treatment:
Heat treatment parameters such as heating rate, cooling rate, and soaking time will depend on the size and shape of the EN9 steel component. Factors such as the type of furnace, quenching medium, and workpiece transfer methods also play an important role.
EN9 Hardening:
For hardening, heat the EN9 steel slowly to 820-840°C and allow the steel to be thoroughly heated. Quenching can be done in oil, brine, or water.
