12CrNi3 is an alloy carburizing steel , which has higher hardenability than 12CrNi2A steel, so it can be used to make parts with a larger cross section than 12CrNi2A steel. 

The steel has good comprehensive mechanical properties after quenching at low temperature or after high temperature tempering. The steel has good low temperature toughness, small notch sensitivity, and good cutting performance. When the hardness is HB260 ~ 320, the relative cutting workability is 60%. ~ 70 In addition, the steel has low hardness and good plasticity after annealing. Therefore, both the cutting method and the cold extrusion method can be used to make the mold. In order to improve the wear resistance of the mold cavity, after the mold is formed, carburizing treatment is required, and then quenching and low temperature tempering are performed to ensure that the mold surface has high hardness and high wear resistance and the core has good toughness. Steel is suitable for making large and medium plastic molds. However, the steel has a tendency to temper brittleness and a tendency to form white spots.

In what applications is 12CrNi3 used?

12CrNi3 is a widely used high-grade carburizing steel. Compared with 15Cr and 20Cr steel, its strength, plasticity and hardenability are all higher. It is mainly used to make shafts, rods that require high strength, high hardness and high toughness under heavy load conditions, shafts and rods that require high center toughness or bear impact loads, surface wear resistance, and small heat treatment deformation, and work under high speed and impact loads Various transmission gears, adjusting screws, camshafts.
