High strength, elasticity and flexibility of alloy steel made this material in demand in many production areas. Such steel is used in external structures of structures, at high temperature changes and the influence of aggressive medium. The qualitative characteristics of the material depend on the degree of saturation with carbon in percentage.
It has alloy steel with excellent technological qualities — it transfers extremely high and low temperatures. The advantages of the material are given by thermal processing used in the production of the material. By chemical composition, such steel is divided into 3 groups: low, medium — and highly alloyed.
Steel used in the field of construction and engineering is carried out using the technology of surface saturation with carbon and subjected to heat treatment. Use such structural alloy steels in the production of parts that will be subjected to high loads — pressure and friction. For example, for the manufacture of spare parts for cars.
The highest strength indicators in alloy instrumental steel. For its saturation, chrome, manganese, silicon and tungsten are used to saturate. Details are made from it for tools, such as incisors, drills, mills.
Distinguishes low alloy steel high strength, plasticity and unusually granular texture. Its composition has a small percentage of carbon. Stainless alloy steel is used in the production of water supply, gas pipes, since it has anti -corrosion properties. The material is non -toxic and widely used for household needs, for example, for cutlery, kitchen utensils and the like.
