25CrMo4

Weldable quench- & tempering steel that can withstand temperatures up to approx. 525°C.

25CrMo4 is a low-alloy steel that contains chromium and molybdenum as the main alloying elements. Often used in technical applications where high strength and toughness are required.

The “25” in its name refers to the average carbon content of approx. 0.25%, while “Cr” and “Mo” stand for chromium and molybdenum respectively. The addition of these alloying elements improves the steel’s hardenability, resistance to abrasion and corrosion, and strength at high temperature.

25CrMo4 steel can be heat treated to improve its mechanical properties, such as hardness and strength. It also exhibits good weldability and machinability, making it suitable for a wide range of manufacturing processes.

Overall, 25CrMo4 is a versatile and widely used steel alloy in engineering and manufacturing applications that require high strength and toughness.

Often used for axles, wear rails, bolts, gears, etc.
