SCM440 alloy steel plate is a commonly used alloy structural steel plate, which conforms to the Japanese JIS G4053 standard. The following is a detailed introduction to the SCM440 alloy steel plate:
1. Chemical composition: The chemical composition of SCM440 alloy steel plate includes carbon (C) content in the range of 0.38-0.43%, silicon (Si) content in the range of 0.15-0.35%, manganese (Mn) content in the range of 0.60-0.85%, phosphorus (P) and sulfur (S) content are controlled at a low level (up to 0.030%). The content of chromium (Cr) is 0.90-1.20%, and the content of molybdenum (Mo) is 0.15-0.30%.
2. Mechanical properties: SCM440 alloy steel plate has excellent mechanical properties. Its yield strength is usually between 800-1000 MPa, tensile strength between 950-1150 MPa, and elongation between 12-18%.
3. Heat treatment process: SCM440 alloy steel plate can obtain the required mechanical properties and organizational structure through heat treatment process. Common heat treatment processes include quenching and tempering. Quenching allows the material to achieve high hardness and strength, while tempering improves toughness and reduces internal stress.
4. Microstructure: The typical microstructure of SCM440 alloy steel plate is martensite and pearlite. After proper heat treatment, fine and uniform martensitic structure can be obtained to improve the strength and hardness of the material.
5. Application: SCM440 alloy steel plate is widely used in construction machinery, automotive parts, bearings, connecting rods and gears and other high-strength parts manufacturing. Its high strength and excellent wear resistance make it suitable for applications where large loads and shocks are required.
6. Processing performance: SCM440 alloy steel plate has good processing performance, can be conventional mechanical processing (such as cutting, drilling, milling, etc.) and hot processing (such as forging, hot rolling, etc.), but due to its high hardness, may need to use the appropriate tools and process parameters for processing.
In general, SCM440 alloy steel plate is a kind of alloy structural steel plate with excellent mechanical properties, high strength and good wear resistance, which is widely used in many industrial fields. Through proper heat treatment and processing, it can meet various requirements and provide reliable performance and quality.
