## 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.

Every designation on file is listed — no truncation, no “+ n more”. Each one is itself a route that leads back here.

## Chemical composition

 6 elements on file · weight %

What this alloy is

Fe Cr Mn Si

Iron — the balance, never listed by a standard — 97.5 % Cr — 1.1 % Mn — 0.8 % Si — 0.4 % Traces & impurities · 0.3 %

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

| Element | % by weight |
|---|---|
| C | 0.24–0.31 |
| Si | ≤ 0.4 |
| Mn | 0.6–0.9 |
| P | 0.025 |
| S | 0.035 |
| Cr | 0.9–1.2 |

Carbon Silicon Manganese Phosphorus Sulfur Chromium

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 | 0,24-0,31 | 0.240 | 0.310 | Range |
| Si | ≤0,40 | — | 0.400 | Max |
| P | 0,025 | 0.025 | 0.025 | Exact |
| S | 0,035 | 0.035 | 0.035 | Exact |
| Cr | 0,90-1,20 | 0.900 | 1.200 | Range |
| Mn | 0,60-0,90 | 0.600 | 0.900 | Range |

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, Mo.

## 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.

## Properties by condition

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 1.7, a shared category, and a published range for Cr / Mn 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.
