3. Product Details

1. Appearance details

The 100CrMnMoSi8-4-6 product features a well-defined appearance and stringent precision control: The round steel/rod surfaces exhibit uniform silver-gray metallic luster, free from oxide scale accumulation, cracks, inclusions, or porosity defects. They demonstrate excellent diameter consistency without noticeable bending deformation, with precision-grade surface roughness Ra ≤ 0.8μm. The sheet metal surfaces are smooth and flat, with no burrs on edges and neat cutting surfaces, maintaining dimensional deviations within ±0.05mm. Forged parts show uniform forging marks, free from flash or cracks. The pipes feature smooth inner walls without burrs, uniform outer diameters and wall thicknesses, and no oval deformation. The overall appearance showcases superior quality, reflecting refined and precision-formed craftsmanship, and is ready for subsequent precision machining and heat treatment.


2. Internal organization details

Metallographic analysis reveals that the annealed microstructure of 100CrMnMoSi8-4-6 steel consists of pearlite and networked carbides, with uniformly distributed fine carbides and grain sizes controlled at ASTM 7-8 level, facilitating mechanical processing and subsequent heat treatment. After quenching and tempering, the microstructure transforms into fine needle-like martensite with dispersed carbides (≤0.5μm), showing no significant decarburization or carbon deficiency, demonstrating excellent structural stability. The electroslag remelting process effectively removes internal impurities, resulting in minimal shrinkage cavities, porosity, and segregation defects. With a density exceeding 99.8%, the steel ensures long-term operational stability under heavy loads and high-speed rotation conditions by preventing component failure due to internal defects.


3. Performance Details

- Hardness: The annealed state hardness ≤217HBW, suitable for precision machining; after quenching and tempering, the hardness stabilizes at HRC60-65 with uniform distribution, deviation not exceeding ±1HRC, effectively resisting friction and wear under heavy loads, thereby extending the service life of wear-resistant components.

- Mechanical properties (after quenching and tempering): Tensile strength ≥1800MPa, yield strength ≥1500MPa, elongation at break ≥8%, reduction of area at break ≥20%, impact toughness αk ≥40J/cm² (at room temperature). It exhibits excellent strength-to-toughness balance, capable of withstanding heavy loads and minor impacts, thereby preventing brittle fracture of components during operation.

- Contact fatigue resistance: The contact fatigue life (L10) exceeds 1000 hours under 3000MPa load and 3000r/min speed, demonstrating exceptional performance. This feature effectively accommodates high-speed, high-load operating conditions, reduces fatigue failure risks, and extends equipment service life.

- Hardenability and Wear Resistance: Exhibits excellent hardenability, maintaining core hardness above HRC58 in a 100mm thick cross-section after quenching. Oil cooling alone suffices for quenching, simplifying heat treatment processes. The material demonstrates exceptional wear resistance, with wear rates ≤0.01mm/1000h (under heavy-duty friction conditions), far surpassing conventional structural steels and ideal for long-term friction and wear applications.

- Machinability and weldability: The annealed state exhibits adequate machinability for turning, milling, and grinding operations. Weldability is average, requiring preheating to 200-300°C before welding and immediate tempering post-welding to prevent cracks, making it suitable for welding simple-shaped components.
