    2. EN 10269 Grade 42CrMo4 (1.7225)

    EN 10269 Grade 42CrMo4 (1.7225) Fasteners

    High-Strength Chromium-Molybdenum Alloy Steel Bolts, Stud Bolts, Screws, Nuts & Washers in EN 10269 Grade 42CrMo4 (1.7225)

    EN 10269 Grade 42CrMo4 (1.7225) Fasteners are high-strength chromium-molybdenum alloy steel fasteners offering outstanding tensile strength, good toughness, and excellent hardenability, extensively used in critical bolting for pressure vessels, compressors, and high-temperature flanged joints in oil & gas and power plants.

    • a Elements not listed in this table may not be intentionally added to the steel without the agreement of the purchaser except for finishing the cast. All appropriate precautions are to be taken to avoid the addition of such elements from scrap and other materials used in production which would impair mechanical properties and the usefulness of the steel.
    • b A controlled sulphur content of 0,015 % to 0,030 % improves the machinability and is therefore recommended and may be agreed at time of enquiry and order. For weldability, a controlled sulphur content of 0,008 % to 0,030 % is recommended and may be agreed at time of enquiry and order.
    • c For requirements regarding magnetic properties up to a maximum of 0,28 % C.
