C90S (1.1217) steel - specification and application

Spring construction steel for oil hardening for springs and working periodically springs with small dimensions. Provided in the form of a spring tapes - C90S is characterized by high abrasion resistance and high strength.

In addition to the use for springs, it is also designed for wood and stone saws, knives and machine scissors, spring washers, cutting elements and cutting tools. After the treatment shows the structure of tempered martensite. During heat treatment, a protective atmosphere should be used to avoid decarburization and oxidation of the material.

C90S steel has a higher carbon content than C67S, C55S and C75S.
