## 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.

## Chemical composition

 8 elements on file · weight %

What this alloy is

Fe Mn Si Cr

Iron — the balance, never listed by a standard — 97.9 % Mn — 0.6 % Si — 0.4 % Cr — 0.4 % Traces & impurities · 0.8 %

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

| Element | % by weight |
|---|---|
| C | 0.17–0.24 |
| Si | ≤ 0.4 |
| Mn | 0.4–0.7 |
| P | 0.035 |
| S | 0.035 |
| Cr | ≤ 0.4 |
| Mo | ≤ 0.1 |
| Ni | ≤ 0.4 |

Carbon Silicon Manganese Phosphorus Sulfur Chromium Molybdenum Nickel

0.01 % 0.1 % 1 % 10 % 100 %

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.

| Element | As published source text, verbatim | Min% by weight | Max% by weight | Bound |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| C | 0,17-0,24 | 0.170 | 0.240 | Range |
| Si | ≤0,40 | — | 0.400 | Max |
| P | 0,035 | 0.035 | 0.035 | Exact |
| S | 0,035 | 0.035 | 0.035 | Exact |
| Cr | ≤0,40 | — | 0.400 | Max |
| Mn | 0,40-0,70 | 0.400 | 0.700 | Range |
| Ni | ≤0,40 | — | 0.400 | Max |
| Mo | ≤0,10 | — | 0.100 | Max |

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

 computed from composition · °C

Predicted Ae3 812 °C

Predicted Ae1 725 °C

Predicted Acm 465 °C

Predicted Bs 575 °C

These four temperatures are a CALCULATION from this grade's own composition, using the published Li, Niebuhr, Meekisho & Atteridge (1998) model — never a measurement, and computed from the UPPER BOUND of each element's specified range, not a mid-range figure. Where this grade also has a measured transformation point (Ac1, Ac3, Ar1, Ar3) on file, it is shown separately, in Physical & mechanical properties, and is never replaced by the predicted figures here — Ae (predicted, equilibrium) and Ac/Ar (measured, on heating or cooling) are different physical quantities and can differ by tens of degrees; a mismatch between the two is not an error in either.

## Physical & mechanical properties

Density 7,85 g/cm³ Exact

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.

Every figure holds only for the condition on its own row. Values are never merged across conditions or across sources, never averaged, and never interpolated between two rows. An em dash means no value on file — never zero. Figures are converted to the unit in the column header; the source’s own wording is kept and shown where the two differ.

## Similar grades — and why

Selection rule, stated so you can disagree with it: same number class 1.1, a shared category, and a published range for Mn / Si that overlaps this grade’s. These are neighbours in composition space — they are not equivalents, and none is claimed to be interchangeable with this grade.
