DIN / EN · Europe · 4 designations

Cf 70

Cf 70 is a designation in DIN / EN for the material held under material number 1.1249, also listed as C70G. It is a material in the category Steels for surface hardening. We list 4 designations recorded for this grade, in the standards DIN / EN, AISI / SAE and ČSN.

About Steels for surface hardening

Steels for surface hardening are steels designed to develop a hard, wear-resistant surface while retaining a tougher interior. They are used for gears, shafts and other machine parts where resistance to surface wear is needed together with resistance to impact and bending.

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

Logarithmic scale, 0.01 % to 100 % — every value here compares directly, decade by decade.

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

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.
