EN24
Grade Introduction:
EN24 Alloy Steel is a very high-strength steel alloy that is supplied hardened and tempered. The grade is a nickel-chromium molybdenum combination – this offers high tensile steel strength, with good ductility and wear resistance characteristics. With relatively good impact properties at low temperatures, EN24 is also suitable for a variety of elevated temperature applications. EN24 sections larger than 250mm may still be available in the quenched and tempered condition, but it should be noted that a fall-off in mechanical properties may be apparent approaching the center of the bar. It is therefore recommended that larger sizes are supplied in the annealed (softened) condition and that quenching and tempering are carried out after initial stock removal. This should achieve better mechanical properties towards the core.
Grade Application

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 steel 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 alloy steel.
Hardness
248 – 302
Hardening
EN24 is supplied ready heat treated. If further heat treatment is required annealed EN24 should be heated slowly to 830-850°C and after adequate soaking at this temperature quench in oil. Temper as soon as tools reach room temperature. Hardening from a neutral salt bath, will reduce the possibility of scaling or decarburization. Heat to 830-850°C and after equalization quench in oil.
Thermal Properties
Thermal conductivity – 41.9 W/m-°C
Forging Properties
Preheat carefully, then raise temperature to 1000-1100°C for forging. Do not forge the steel below 850-1100°C. After forging cool slowly preferably in a furnace.
Stress Relieving
When parts are heavily machined, ground or otherwise subject to cold work, stress relieving will be beneficial prior to hardening. Heat carefully to 650-670°C, soak well before cooling in the furnace or in the air.
Welding
When welding is completed allow components to cool to 180°C before Post Weld Heat Treatment.
