Equivalent for 34CrAlMo5
Equivalent for 34CrAlMo5
(OP)
Anyone knows a good NA equivalent for 34CrAlMo5 that is easily available on the US market? It also needs to be cold drawn wire ~4.5 mm, and I'm talking about a large quantity.
I already know about A355, but I can not find a good source for it.
It looks like if you add 1.2% Al to 4135H you almost get there. Does such a modified 4135H exist?
Thanks,
Lucian

If this is the case, the following:
AMS 6470, 6471, 6472 and 6475
might meet your requirements.

This material is also sold under the trade name Nitrodur 34CrAlMo5.
RE: Equivalent for 34CrAlMo5
Indeed I'm looking for a nitriding steel, and my first choice was A355/nitralloy; wire is not necessary a requirement, we'll have someone else to take care of drawing it. The issue that I have is that our buyer complains about not being able to get it on the NA market. At least not without paying too much compared to what he usually buys (say 52100, 8620).
That is why I'm looking into giving him options.
Thanks again, and if you have other suggestions... go ahead.

A lot of this work has been done with CR + V alloys. One alloy I've seen used is 50CrV4 in wire for springs to be Nitrided.
RE: Equivalent for 34CrAlMo5
Either way this stuff will cost a lot more than 8620 that is for sure.
Try one of the multinational wire houses like Bekaert or a specialty guy like Gibbs.
