The quenched and tempered steel grade 1.6580 (30CrNiMo8) is one of the highest-performance alloy engineering steels for highly demanding applications. Thanks to its elevated nickel content, it offers an excellent combination of strength, toughness, and hardenability.
Typical applications can be found in mechanical and plant engineering, the energy sector, pump manufacturing, as well as the oil and gas industry, including fracking applications.
Available heat-treated conditions
- QT 800–950 MPa tensile strength
- QT 1000–1200 MPa tensile strength
This material is particularly sought after wherever high mechanical loads and a long service life are required.
