Steel 12HN3A - specifications and application

Special steel for thermo-chemical treatment with low hardenability for parts subject to high and variable loads and stresses with medium cross-sections.

It is characterized by high strength and at the same time high plasticity of the core due to the high content of nickel in the chemical composition. Used, among others, as a steel for aviation, it is dedicated for use in parts of aircraft engines and for components of aviation equipment.

Equally often used for responsible parts of machinery and structures working with variable loads requiring abrasion resistance. 12HN3A grade is used as steel for gears and for control shafts, adjusting screws, axles, and rollers.

12HN3A steel should be welded before the carburization process, and the product does not require pre-heating before the procedure.
