EN 36C
EN36C is a low-alloy case-hardening steel that is primarily used in the production of highly stressed components, such as gears, crankshafts, and camshafts. It is a popular steel grade in the automotive and engineering industries.
EN36C steel is known for its excellent case-hardening properties. Case hardening is a heat treatment process that involves introducing a high carbon surface layer to the steel, while maintaining a tough and ductile core. This process increases the surface hardness and wear resistance of the steel, while retaining its core strength.
