    Cromax 42CrMo4 is manufactured from the standard low-alloy chromiummolybdenum steel. The product finds application where there is a requirement for elevated strength in combination with a defined and high level of toughness. The surface roughness (Ra) is always less than 0. M and normally in the range 0.05-0. M.

    CHROME LAYER:
    The thickness of the chrome layer is minimum 20 m.

    SURFACE ROUGHNESS:
    The surface roughness (Ra) is always less than 0.2 m and normally in the range 0.05-0.15 m. Rt (ISO) is always less than 2.0 m and normally in the range 0.5-1.5 m.

Global Metals takes no responsibility for any errors1 or omissions, or for any consequences resulting from its use.

    SURFACE HARDNESS, INDUCTION HARDENING:


    The chrome layer hardness is 850 HV0.1. Cromax 42CrMo4 can be supplied in an induction-hardened execution. In such a case, the hardness immediately beneath the chrome layer is 55 HRC min., and the depth of hardening is between 1.0 and 3.0 mm depending on dimension. However, for applications requiring induction hardening, Cromax 482, induction-hardened hardchrome bar is recommended.

    STRAIGHTNESS:
    The maximum deviation is 0.2mm/1.0m.

    ROUNDNESS:
    The out of roundness is maximised at 50% of the diameter tolerance interval.

    DIAMETER TOLERANCE:
    ISO f7 are standard. Specific machining recommendations for turning and threading of Cromax 42CrMo4 are tabulated below. Tolerance Ranges Size mm > 18-30 > 30-50 > 50-80 > 80-120

    ISO f7 m upper -20 -25 -30 -36

    ISO f7 m lower -41 -50 -60 -71

    WELDABILITY:
    Cromax 42CrMo4 has only limited weldability. Preheating to 200-300C is strongly recommended; the upper limit should not be exceeded because of risk for deterioration of the chrome layer. Cromax 42CrMo4 can be friction welded. However, precautions are necessary so as to limit the formation of undesirable microstructures in the welded zone.

    CORROSION RESISTANCE:
    The chromium layer generated in hard chrome plating contains micro cracks and its corrosion resistance is thereby limited. Ovakos Cromax products are characterised by a controlled micro crack distribution with high crack density, which in combination with specially adapted finishing procedures, provided for superior corrosion resistance. Most corrosion resistance specifications for hard chrome products are based on salt spray testing following the ISO 9227 standard or its equivalents (see below), combined with evaluation according to ISO 10289. ISO 9227 NSS AASS CASS ASTM B 117 B 287 B 368 DIN 50021 SS ESS CASS SALT SPRAY TYPE Neutral Acetic acid Coper accelerated acetic acid

    While the correlation between these methods is not always clear, our experience is that a given degree of corrosion is reached 2-3 times as fast in the AASS test as in NSS testing. Cromax in standard execution is guaranteed to attain rating 9 or better after 40h in AASS test. The same rating will be achieved in NSS test after about 100h.

    DELIVERY LENGTHS:
    Production lengths are between 4.0-7.6m. Standard is 6.1 +0.1/-0m. Bars with length 7.6 +0.1/-0m can only be supplied for diameters between 40-80mm. The unchromed length of each bar, i.e. the distance at each end over which the chrome layer properties and tolerances can not be guaranteed, is at most 0.15m per end, i.e. 0.3m in total per bar. Fixed, cut lengths can be supplied if required, but at a higher price than production lengths.

    PACKAGING:
    Green plastic sleeve in wooden case. Every Cromax bar is marked with product and batch information so as to facilitate full traceability.

    SIZES AVAILABLE:
    Available ex mill 25mm 110mm

    COLOUR CODE: BOTTLE GREEN
