37MnSi5

37MnSi5 is a material in the category Quenched and tempered steels, held under material number 1.5122. Its recorded composition includes C 0.33–0.41%, Si 1.1–1.4%, P 0.035%, S 0.035% and Mn 1.1–1.4%. We list 6 designations recorded for this grade, in the standards BS, GB, GOST, ČSN, PN and SRPS. Its recorded density is 7.85 g/cm³.

About Quenched and tempered steels

Quenched and tempered steels are heat-treated steels designed to combine high strength with useful toughness and ductility. They are used for heavily loaded components such as shafts, gears, fasteners and structural machine parts where resistance to mechanical stress is required.

This describes the material class as a whole. Always confirm the individual grade against the standard before ordering.

The scale is logarithmic, not the element’s raw share of the alloy — the only honest way to fit 0.01 % and 100 % in one picture, and it means every value here can be compared with every other.

The published column is the source string byte-for-byte, decimal comma and all; Min and Max are the parsed bounds. Elements not listed have no value on file — they are omitted, never inferred.

Predicted transformation temperatures

Not enough recorded composition to predict a transformation temperature for this grade — missing: Ni, Cr, Mo.

Physical & mechanical properties

Density7,85g/cm³Exact

An absent property means we hold no value for it — it is left out rather than estimated, interpolated from a neighbouring grade, or filled from a handbook. It does not mean the property is undefined for the material.

Supply condition

Conditions the standard permits on delivery. No temperature or medium is published for these, so no order and no alternation is implied.
