    Uploaded by

    LUCIA MAÑAY
    708M40 is a high-quality alloy steel that offers good ductility, shock resistance, and wear resistance. It has a tensile strength of 850-1000N/mm2 and reasonable impact properties at low temperatures. 708M40 can be supplied as bright drawn bar, hot rolled black bar, or precision ground bar. It is commonly used in applications that require a high-tensile steel grade, such as gears, shafts, and bolts in the motor and oil/gas industries.

    708M40 Alloy Steel

    708M40 708M40T steel suppliers and stockholders delivering to the whole of the UK. West Yorkshire
    Steel are suppliers of bright drawn bar and hot rolled black bar. 708M40 is a similar grade to 709M40 but with
    a variation in the molybdenum content. As a high quality alloy steel specification 708M40 is usually supplied
    heat treated to 'T' condition. This grade offers good ductility and shock resisting properties combined with
    resistance to wear. With these characteristics it is a popular high tensile engineering steel with a tensile of
    850°-1000N/mm². At low temperatures it has reasonably good impact properties. It is also suitable for a variety
    of elevated temperature applications. For maximum wear and abrasion resistance the steel can be nitrided to
    give a shallow depth wear resistant case. Flame or induction hardening of 708M40T can give a case hardness
    of 50HRc or higher.

    We welcome export enquiries for alloy steel. Contact our sales office and consult our shipping policy for further
    details.

    Applications

    708M40T is now widely used in areas such as the motor, oil and gas industries. Suitable for components such as
    shafts, gears, spindles, bolts, studs and a wide variety of applications where a good quality high tensile steel grade
    is required.
    Analysis

    Carbon 0.36-0.44% Chromium 0.90-1.20%

    Manganese 0.70-1.00% Molybdenum 0.15-0.25%

    Silicon 0.10-0.35% Sulphur 0.040% max

    Phosphorous 0.035% max

    Forging

    Preheat the steel carefully, then raise temperature to 850-1200°C for forging. Do not forge below 850°C. After
    forging this alloy steel, cool slowly in still air.

    Annealing

    Heat the steel slowly to 680-700°C. Cool in air.

    Hardening

    This grade is commonly supplied ready heat treated. If further heat treatment is required annealed 708M40 should
    be heated slowly to 860-890°C and after adequate soaking at this temperature quench in oil. Temper as soon as
    tools reach room temperature.

    Tempering

    Heat the component carefully to a suitable temperature selected by reference to a tempering chart or table, soak at
    the temperature for two hours per 25mm of ruling section, then allow to cool in air. Tempering between 250-375°C
    is not advised as tempering within this range will seriously reduce the impact value.

    Heat Treatment

    Heat treatment temperatures, including rate of heating, cooling and soaking times will vary due to factors such as
    the shape and size of each component. Other considerations during the heat treatment process include the type of
    furnace, quenching medium and work piece transfer facilities. Please consult your heat treatment provider for full
    guidance on heat treatment of 708M40 alloy steel.

    Certification

    708M40T alloy steel is available with BS EN 10204 3.1 mill certificate, please request when placing any orders.

    Quality Assured Supply

    708M40T is supplied in accordance with our ISO 9001:2015 registration.
