Steel Alloy AISI 4317

Typical uses are: Heavy Duty Bushings and Bearings, Cam Followers, Clutch Dogs, Compressor Bolts, Extractors, Fan Shafts, Heavy Duty Gears, Pump Shafts, Sprockets, Tappets, Wear Pins, Wire Guides etc..

 very good yield strenght [680-900 MPa]

 top tensile strenght [950-1300 MPa]

 high surface wear resistance

 about 3 times heavier than aluminum

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)
