Alloy Steel 8620

Grade Summary: Alloy Steel 8620 has nickel imparts good toughness and ductility, chromium and molybdenum contribute increased hardness penetration and wear. It is readily carburized and the well-balanced alloy content permits hardening to produce a strong, tough core and high case hardness.

Typical Applications: Because of the fine combination of properties that may be developed, as well as the ease with which it may be processed, this material is ideal for a wide variety of applications.

  • Gears
  • Pinions
  • Oil pump piston rods and liners
  • Spline shafts
  • Piston pins
  • Cams
  • Jigs
  • Plastic molds
  • Oil tool slips
  • Jaws
  • Gauges
