2Cr13

Description

2Cr13(20Cr13 New Grade)

2Cr13 steel is a more commonly used stainless steel, which has high thermal strength, oxidation resistance and good shock absorption. It has good corrosion resistance in weakly corrosive media and has sufficient corrosion resistance to freshwater, seawater, steam, and air. Higher performance can be obtained after heat treatment.

Heat treatment

1) Annealing, slow cooling at 800 ~ 900 ℃ or rapid cooling at about 750 ℃;

2) Quenching, 920 ~ 980 ℃ oil cooling;

3) Tempering, rapid cooling at 600 ~ 750 ℃.

Application

2Cr13 stainless steel has high hardness and good corrosion resistance in quenched state. Many of them are used as cutting tools. They are “cutting tool grade” martensitic steel. They are also used as surgical cutting tools. They are similar to the earliest stainless steel such as Brinell high chromium steel. In addition, they are also used as steam turbine blades.

It can also be used to manufacture mechanical parts working below 450 ° C and chemical and food industrial containers used at room temperature.. For example, transmission parts, fixed pins, tie rods, turbine blades, valve seats, valve plates, valve stems, pump parts, molds, etc. Among them, transmission parts, fixed pins, tie rods and other parts are generally used after quenching and tempering.
