OHNS is an oil-hardening, non-deforming tool steel which can be hardened at relatively low temperatures. Tools and dies made from O1 will have good wearing qualities since the tungsten and higher chromium content gives improved wear resistance over the straight manganese grades.

20MnCr5 / 16MnCr5 – Case Hardening Alloy Steel

Overview:
20MnCr5 and 16MnCr5 are low-alloy case hardening steels known for their excellent wear resistance, high tensile strength, and good machinability. These steels are widely used for producing components that demand a hard, wear-resistant surface and a tough, impact-resistant core.

Key Properties:

• Composition: Low carbon with manganese and chromium additions

• Hardening Capability: Excellent surface hardening through carburizing

• Core Toughness: Maintains good ductility and toughness in the core after heat treatment

• Weldability: Moderate — welding is possible with proper precautions and post-weld treatment

• Machinability: Good – easily shaped and finished before hardening

Common Applications:

• Gears

• Shafts

• Camshafts

• Pins and bolts

• Transmission components

Heat Treatment Options:

• Carburizing: For surface hardening

• Quenching and Tempering: For strength and toughness

• Annealing: To soften before machining

• Normalizing: To refine grain structure and improve uniformity

Conclusion:
20MnCr5 / 16MnCr5 are ideal steels for applications requiring a combination of hard surface wear resistance and core toughness, making them popular in the automotive and mechanical engineering industries.
