General Information: Ovako 837 is a through hardening bearing steel that is mainly used for medium sized bearing rings, but can also be used for machine components that require high tensile strength and high hardness.- 30 mm maximum wall thickness for through hardening
- Used for martensitic hardening
- Can be induction hardened
- Good machinability in soft annealed condition
- Machinable in hardened condition using hard-turning techniques (CBN tools)
- Very good dimension stability
837R - Bearing quality (BQ) variant 837S - Variant with a controlled high sulphur content for enhanced low speed machining 5625 / 837Z - A continuous cast variantBQ-Steel: BQ-steel® is a bearing quality clean steel optimized for fatigue strength and is also ideal for new design solutions outside the bearing industry.
