Description / Abstract:
Form
This specification covers an age hardenable nitriding grade of
aircraft-quality, low-alloy steel in the form of bars, forgings,
mechanical tubing, and forging stock.
Application
These products have been used typically for nitrided parts
requiring highest surface hardness, high core hardness, resistance
to heat, and less distortion than parts made from steel requiring
quenching to case harden, but usage is not limited to such
applications.
