En2a Steel Sheet

Excellent machinability and suitable for case hardening and electroplating.

En2a steel sheet.

The main advantage of cold drawn steel is that steel can be brought closer to the finished machine size providing reduces machining costs. En1a also known as bs 970 230m07 is bright mild steel noted for its low carbon content. Bs s511 is an unalloyed heat treatable carbon steel available in sheet and strip. Aisi sae 1005.

En1a is a low carbon mild steel free cutting suitable for machining using both automatic and cnc machines. C si mn p s by weight 0 06 0 35 0 25 to 0 04 0 04 max max 0 50 max max. Sheet strip all information in our data sheet is based on approximate testing and is stated to the best of our knowledge and belief. The alloy is suitable for low strength components requiring significant drawing operations during manufacture.

No allowance had been made in the 1941 edition for a possible insertion of further steel grades and the british standards institution considered that to have applied a high en number would have divorced the grades completely from steels of similar types. Bs s511 requires protection from corrosion if it is to be exposed to the atmosphere and supplied with an annealed tensile strength. U1004 as 1443 u1004 approx. Carbon steels data sheets grade.

In 1955 the bs970 en range of steel specifications was revised to add further steel grades. En2a chemicalcomposition weight weight c si mn p s ni cr mo min max 0 1 0 2 0 5 0 04 0 04 0 2 0 15 0 05. It is presented apart from. Plain low carbon chemical composition.

The column on the left shows some of the steel grades stocked by hillfoot while the middle columns show grades with similar chemistry and the two columns on the right display grades for potential substitution. The table below details similar grades to the most commonly used engineering steels. Another benefit of bright steel bars is a marked increase in physical strength over hot rolled bars of the same section. Premium grade free cutting steel used by repetition engineers for a wide variety of applications.
