AISI 416 hardenability
(OP)
What will be the maximum section thickness to harden and temper 416 to 34-48 RC.
What is the maximum bar diameter for AISI 416H per ASTM-A-582 (pre hardened bars to 34-48RC)

Hope your application is real dry and hot, because using these steels wet at those Rc levels is just begging for HE cracking. Also be aware of how many failures there are when using 416 instead of 410 or 403.

We use 416H for many years for fine pitch pinions and gears for aerospace actuators with no problems. Usually those gears are dry of greased.

In any event, all that Cr means it will through-harden in very large sizes.

Thanks for the info. Can you refer me to a public data conforming it?
