| Typical Mechanical Properties |
|
| Chemical Composition |
|
| Applications | EN24 is widely used in the manufacturing of high-strength components like gears, shafts, spindles, studs, bolts, and automotive and aerospace parts. |
| Melting & Refining Method | EN24 is generally produced using Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) or Basic Oxygen Furnace (BOF) methods, with secondary refining like Vacuum Degassing (VD) and Ladle Refining Furnace (LRF) for superior quality. |
| Rolling Route | The material is produced via the Continuous Casting route, where molten steel is cast into billets and then hot rolled into desired bar sizes. |
| Quality Control | Strict quality control processes are implemented, including chemical analysis, mechanical testing, and dimensional checks to ensure product quality. |
| Surface Condition | Hot Rolled Bars may have a scale-covered surface, which can be removed through pickling, shot blasting, or machining as per customer requirements. |
| Traceability | Each batch is fully traceable back to its heat number, ensuring documentation of all chemical and mechanical properties. |
