PART 20 MECHANICAL AND PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF

20MnCr5 GRADE STEEL

0. FOREWORD

0.1 This Indian Standard ( Part 20 )was adopted by the Indian Standards Institution on 27 March 1986, after the draft finalized by Co-ordinating Committee on Materials for Automobiles had been approved by Structural and Metals Division Council.

0.2 Part l* of this standard was published in 1979 which covers the chemical composition of 33 rationalized steels. The mechanical properties, hardenability and isothermal transformation characteristics of these 33 rationalized steels are being covered in different parts ofthis standard (Parts 2 to 34 ). The data concerning to these properties given in this standard is only for guidance and information purposks.

0.3 For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this standard is complied with, the final value, observed or calculated, expressing the result of a test or analysis, shall be rounded off in accord- ance with IS : 2-19607. The number of significant places retained in the rounded off value should be the same as that of the specified value in this standard.

1. SCOPE

1.1 This standaad ( Part 20 ) covers the mechanical properties, harden- ability and isothermal transformation characteristics of 20MnCr5 grade of steel for use by automobile and ancillary industry.

1.2 This is a carburizing ( case hardening ) steel used for components requiring high wear resistant surface, coupled with tough cores to resist shock loads and strength to give larger service life.

*Rationalized steels for the automobile and ancillary industry: Part 1 Chemical composition.

+Rules for rounding off numerical values ( reuiscd ).

3. HARDNESS

3.1 The maximum hardness for this grade of steel delivered in the as rolled or annealed or normalized condition when determined in accord- ance with IS : 1500-1983* shall be 217 HBS.

4. MECHANICAL PROPERTIES

4.1 The mechanical properties of this grade of steel in the blank carburized and hardened condition when determined in accordance with IS : 1598.19771_ and IS : 1608-l 972: shall be as given in Table 1.
