​
6150 is a fine grained, highly abrasion resistant carbon-chromium alloy steel. Very good shock resistance and toughness are also key properties of this alloy in the heat treated condition. Alloy 6150 Commonly employed in heavily stressed machinery parts including shafts, gears, pinions and also in hand tool components.
SAE 8620 Alloy Steel
Specifications: AMS 6274,AMS 6276, AMS 6277, AMS 6375, ASTM A29, ASTM A322, ASTM A331, ASTM A506, ASTM A507, ASTM A513, ASTM A519, ASTM A646, ASTM A752, ASTM A829, MIL-S-8690, UNS G86200
AISI 8620 an alloy steel designed for case hardening applications. The nickel imparts good toughness and ductility. The chromium and molybdenum contribute increased hardness penetration and wear, that may be carburized. The well balanced alloy content permits hardening to produce a hard wear resistant case combined with a core strength in the order of 125,000 PSI. It has excellent machinability and responds well to polishing applications.. With the balanced analysis, this steel provides, uniform case depth, hardness and wear properties, and gives the advantage of low distortion. Typical applications for alloy 8620 are caburized splined shafts, piston pins, cam shafts, guide pins, bushings, automotive differential pinions and transmissions, arbors, bearings, sleeves king pins, carburized gears, general engineering purposes.
