Steel Alloy AISI 1045
1045/ OLC45 is a medium tensile carbon steel supplied in the turned, induction hardened and straightened, precision ground, polished, chrome plated and final polished condition, with a typical base metal tensile strength of 670 Mpa, an induction hardened case of 3.2mm thick approx. to Rc55-65, plus a typical hard chrome plated surface hardness of HV 1000 - 1150.
Description:
Characterised by an extremely smooth surface finish with excellent wear and corrosion resistance, supported by an induction hardened case offering greater strength and resistance to mechanical damage, coupled with good core strength.
1045 induction hardened hard chrome plated bar is used extensively by the hydraulic and pneumatic industries, for those applications utilising its high surface hardness and excellent resistance to surface impact, good vibration resistance
Aluminium Alloy
Series 1xxx: 1050, 1060, 1070, 1080, 1100, 1435 other(are essentially pure aluminium with a minimum 99% aluminium content by weight)
Series 2xxx: 2011, 2014, 2017, 2024 other (are alloyed with copper, can be precipitation hardened to strengths comparable to steel. Formerly referred to as duralumin, they were once the most common aerospace alloys, but were susceptible to stress corrosion cracking and are increasingly replaced by 7000 series in new designs.)
Series 3xxx: 3002, 3003, 3003, 3104, 3204, 3030 other(are alloyed with manganese)
Series 5xxx: 5005, 5025, 5040, 5056, 5083 other(Very good resistance to corrosion and oxidation. For parts with a good mechanical strenght and improved fatigue resistance.)
Series 6xxx: 6101, 6003, 6061, 6063, 6020, 6201, 6262, 6082 other(For machinery components, structural elements. It offers resistance levels higher than the 5xxx series alloys and has a good resistance to corrosion.)
Series 7xxx: 7003, 7005, 7050, 7075 other(Aeronautical alloy: gears and shafts, bicycle and motorbike frames, sprockets, aerospace implementation, nautical engines, moulds, others)
