1.2038 Mold Steel with excellent corrosion resistance has been widely applied in the mold industry. However, in order to meet the increasing demands of injection products with complex structure and high quality, selective laser melting (SLM) as a novel manufacturing method is chosen due to its rapid fabricating parts with complex geometric shapes. Further, it is essential to enhance their hardness and wear property to prolong the service life of the injection mold.

42CrMo4 Bolt grade 10.9 &8.8 Material——High-strength bolt raw material

Most of the high-strength bolts for wind power are grade 10.9, and a few are grade 8.8. For 10.9 grade high-strength bolts, the tensile strength should be 1250MPa≥ Rm≥1030MPa, the elongation should be A≥9%, the reduction of area should be Z≥48%, and the low temperature impact Energy (-45℃):KV2≥27J.

 

What makes the fasteners lose?

 

  1. Selection of bolt raw materials.
  2. Defects in the manufacturing process, resulting in easy breakage at the bottom of the thread during the test;
  3. The processing procedure is inverted (rolling thread before heat treatment), resulting in insufficient thread pressure and pre-tightening force;
  4. The unreasonable control of heat treatment temperature and time leads to insufficient metallographic structure and affects the final performance of the product.
