Instructions for use
- Carburizing followed by hardening produces a hard, wear-resistant surface.
- The tough core provides good resistance to impact and cyclic loading.
- Appropriate heat treatment is essential for achieving the desired mechanical properties.
- The heat treatment condition and desired final hardness should be taken into account before machining.
- After case hardening, machining is only possible to a limited extent.

Saw cutting is a mechanical machining process that causes significantly less unintended deformation and material hardening in the existing microstructure than processes such as flame cutting.
As a result, the saw-cut workpiece already has a homogeneous microstructure at the cut edge, which does not change further into the material. This allows the workpiece to be finished immediately by milling or drilling without the need for prior soft annealing or any similar additional processing step.

Frequently asked questions about material 1.5752:
The older designation according to DIN is 14NiCr14. It is still used today, although 15NiCr13 is now the correct designation. Internationally, it is known as AISI 3310 (USA) or 655M13 (British Standard).
As a high-strength case-hardening steel, this material offers high surface hardness combined with a highly tough core, even with large cross-sections.
For almost all highly stressed components in gearbox and automotive engineering, as well as in tool and mechanical engineering, for example for connecting rods and pistons.
