FAQ:
What is EN24 material equivalent to?
EN24 Alloy structural steel properties are very similar with GB 40CrNiMo steel, JIS SNCM439, and DIN 1.6511 36CrNiMo4 Alloy structural steel. At most work environment, EN24 is equivalent to 40CrNiMo, 1.6511 36CrNiMo4, SNCM439, 4340 steel.
What is the material specification of AISI 4340?
AISI 4340 is generally supplied in hardened and tempered condition with the tensile range of 930 – 1080 Mpa ,hardness 280-320HB. Pre hardened and tempered 4340 can be further surface hardened by flame or induction hardening and by nitriding.
