EN-19

Grade Application:

EN19 Alloy steel was originally introduced for use in the machine tool and motor industries for gears, pinions, shafts, spindles, and the like. Later its applications became much more extended and it is now widely used in areas such as the oil and gas industries. EN19 is suitable for applications such as gears, bolts, studs, and a wide variety of applications where a good quality high tensile steel grade is suited.

Heat treatment:

Steel is heated at 845°C followed by quenching in oil. Before hardening, it can be normalized by heating at 913°C for a long period of time followed by air cooling.

Hardening:

En19 alloy steel can be hardened by cold working or heating and quenching

Tempering:

En19 alloy steel can be tempered at 205 to 649°C depending upon the desired hardness level. The hardness of the steel can be increased if it has a lower tempering temperature. For example, a tensile strength of 225 ksi can be achieved by tempering at 316°C (600°F), and tensile strength of 130 ksi can be achieved by tempering at 538°C(1000°F).
