Material number · Europe · 5 designations # 1.7511 1.7511 is the material number of the grade also listed as 22CrV3. It is a material in the category Case hardening steels. We list 5 designations recorded for this grade, in the standards DIN / EN, UNS and AISI / SAE. - ***Material no.* **1.7511**** - [*Category* **Case hardening steels · 60 grades**](/categories/case-hardening-steels "Category: Case hardening steels · 60 grades") - *Designations* **5** [Search](/search "Steel grade search")[Inquiry](/inquiry?material=c593ee9d-a595-454e-b9e0-4bbd3eb98c0d "Inquiry")[**Datasheet as PDF** Print-ready A4 document **Generating …** **Download started** **Try again**](/materials/material-no/1.7511.pdf "Datasheet as PDF") ## If you came for one of these The most-used names for this grade. - [DIN / EN 22CrV3 This grade’s own name](/materials/din-en/22crv3 "DIN / EN 22CrV3") - [UNS G61180 This grade’s own name · 2 grades on that route](/materials/uns/g61180 "UNS G61180") - [AISI / SAE 6118 This grade’s own name · 2 grades on that route](/materials/aisi-sae/6118 "AISI / SAE 6118") ## About Case hardening steels Case hardening steels are steels designed to develop a hard, wear-resistant surface while retaining a tough and ductile core. They are used for components such as gears, shafts and other machine parts exposed to contact wear and cyclic loading. This describes the material class as a whole. Always confirm the individual grade against the standard before ordering. ## Also known as 5 designations · 3 standards · nothing hidden This grade’s own name recorded in our sources as this grade’s own designation under that standard. Indicative taken from a published cross-reference table; a close match, not a guarantee of interchangeability. Verify against the mill certificate before ordering. Withdrawn designation no longer current — a separate column from the two above, so a name can be same grade and withdrawn at once.

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. ## 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.
