EN31 Alloy Steel – Premium-Grade Wear-Resistant Steel

EN31 is a high-carbon, high-strength alloy steel known for its exceptional toughness, ductility, and wear resistance. Enriched with chromium, nickel, and molybdenum, EN31 undergoes hardening and tempering prior to delivery, making it a preferred choice for parts that demand superior tensile strength and shock resistance. As a trusted C45 carbon steel supplier, we also stock and supply EN31 alloy steel for industries requiring premium-grade wear-resistant materials. Its strong internal structure and high surface hardness ensure reliable performance under heavy stress, even in low-temperature conditions, while also maintaining stability in applications involving elevated heat.

Chemical Composition of EN31

Physical Properties of EN31 Steel

Heat Treatment of EN31

EN31 requires careful heat treatment depending on the component’s size and application. Typical process:

• Tempering Temperature: 150°C to 300°C, based on desired mechanical properties.
• Soaking Time: Minimum 1 hour per 25mm of section thickness.
• Cooling: Controlled air cooling is preferred post-tempering for uniform hardness.

Forging Characteristics

• Forging Temperature Range: 1000°C to 1050°C
• Ensure the material is heated thoroughly and avoid forging below 850°C.
• After forging, cool slowly in a furnace to minimise internal stresses and cracking.
