EN24 Steel

EN24 is a high quality, high tensile, alloy steel . Usually supplied readily machineable in T condition, it combines high tensile strength, shock resistance, good ductility and resistance to wear. EN24 Hardening: Heat uniformly to 850?C until heated through. Quench in oil. Tempering; Heat uniformly and thoroughly at the selected tempering temperature, up to 660?C and hold at heat for two hours per inch of total thickness. Tempering between 250/375?C in not recommended as this can seriously reduce the steels impact value. Stress Relieving; Heat slowly to 650/670?C, soak well before cooling the EN24 tool in a furnace or in air.
