What does EN stand for in EN8?
What does EN stand for in EN8?
Originally Answered: What Does EN8 stands for? EN8 is a medium carbon steel usually supplied untreated. EN8 has good tensile strength and is often used in applications such as: shafts, gears, stressed pins, studs, bolts, keys etc.
What is the HRC of EN8?
EN8M steel is a free-machining grade and is readily machinable in any condition. It can be further surface-hardened to produce components with enhanced wear resistance, typically to 50-55 HRC through induction processes. It is a free cutting version of En8 carbon steel made for easy machining.
What is EN8 material equivalent?
EN8 Steel is Steel Grade in BS 970 1955 Specification And the most equivalent is grade 080M40 steel in BS 970-1991.
What is yield strength of EN8?
700-850 n/mm2. Yield Stress. 465 n/mm2 Min (up to 19mm LRS)
What is an en material?
The meaning of EN is ‘European standard’ or ‘Euronorm’. It has replaced the term BS (i.e, British Standard). In the European Union, it’s standard are mainly use for business. The first two words in the En steels name is the European steel standard, After that the number is the standard number.
What is the difference between EN8 & EN24?
EN8: It is a steel grade which has 0.4% carbon and 0.8% of manganese. Application: Mainly used for shaft and structural applications. EN24:It is a steel which has Ni-Cr-Mo as an alloying elements. EN 24 is generally used in the volume hardened condition.
Does EN8 work harden?
En8 will through harden if heated and quenched similar to silver steel and should be okay for filing button use. The soft type are best set up to rotate as the file touches them – this will prevent the file rapidly changing their shape!
What is the difference between EN8 and EN8D?
EN8 is medium carbon steel, through-hardened. It is readily machinable. It used to manufacture parts such as axles, shafts, gears, studs, bolts etc. EN8D is carbon steel with enhanced wear resistance.

What is the chemical composition of EN8?
What is difference between EN8 and EN9?
STEEL :- EN8 :- 0.4% medium carbon steel. A general purpose steel for applications requiring added strength and superior tensile properties to mild steel specifications. EN9 :- 0.5% carbon steel giving higher tensile than EN8.
