    EN41B is a chromium aluminium molybdenum steel specification that is supplied in hardened and tempered conditions. It offers high wear resistance, toughness, and ductility. EN41B is well-suited for applications requiring excellent resistance to wear and abrasion, such as connecting rods, extruders, and dies. It can be nitrided to create a hard, wear-resistant case up to 68HRc.

    EN 41B

    NITRIDING STEEL

    EN41B is a chromium aluminium molybdenum steel specification usually supplied in the hardened and tempered ‘R’ or
    ‘S’ condition. EN41 ‘R’ condition has a tensile of 700-850 N/mm². EN41’S’ condition has a tensile of 775-925 N/mm². It
    offers high wear resistant properties together with toughness and ductility. It is defined by its suitability for nitriding
    from which EN41B can give a hard wear resistant case up to 68HRc, better than achievable with the similar nitriding
    grade EN40B.

    Applications

    EN41B is suited for applications that required excellent resistance to wear and abrasion. Typical applications include
    connecting rods, small extruders, valve stems, dies. It is widely used in the automotive, textile and general engineering
    industries. Suitable for applications requiring a resistance to wear, it is also suitable for other applications such as brick
    press plates, clutch plates, gudgeon, track and shackle pins.

    Analysis

    Carbon 0.35 - 0.45% Nickel 0.40 % Max


    Silicon 0.10 - 0.45% Phosphorus 0.05 % Max
    Chromium 1.40 - 1.80% Sulphur 0.05 % Max
    Molybdenum 0.10 - 0.25% Manganese 0.65 % Max
    Aluminium 0.90 - 1.30%

    Annealing

    Heat slowly to 650-700°C. Cool in air.

    Hardening

    EN41B is supplied ready heat treated. If further heat treatment is required annealed EN41 should be heated slowly to
    870-930°C and after adequate soaking at this temperature quench in oil/polymer or water. Temper as soon as tools
    reach room temperature.

    Tempering

    Heat carefully to a suitable temperature selected by reference to a tempering chart or table (usually between 580-
    700°C). Soak at the temperature for 2 hours per 25mm of ruling section, then allow to cool in the air.
