Features and Uses of  EN30B

This is a high carbon version of EN30B, the increased carbon content allowing higher hardness levels to be achieved after heat treatment. The steel can be either oil or air hardened and exhibits minimum distortion in heat treatment.

This steel can be used for many purposes where toughness and high tensile strength are required. One of the main uses is for plastic moulds, but it has may other applications for example: components of small presses including anvils, collars, strikers or hammers, rams or punch holders. Other applications include rivet snaps, air hardening cold chisels, crimping tools, clutch keys, racks, pinions and angle pins for pressure die casting tooling.
