General Information: Ovako 825 is a through hardening bearing steel that is mainly used for medium sized bearing rings, but it can also be used for machine components that require high tensile strength, hardness and toughness.Through hardenability corresponding to a ring with approximately 30mm wall thickness (˜Ø50mm bar), quenched in oilSuitable for martensitic or banitic hardeningGood machinability in soft annealed conditionGood dimensional stabilityBQ-Steel: 825B – Standard825T - With a controlled low sulphur content to minimize the number of sulphide inclusions. Reduced carbon content and tighter chemical composition rangesIQ-Steel:825Q - Isotropic properties (IQ) and better fatigue strength due to higher cleanliness levels, and a finer size and distribution of non-metallic inclusions BQ-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. IQ-Steel:IQ-Steel® is an isotropic quality ultra clean steel optimized for high fatigue strength under multi axial loading. Information provided by Ovako |
