Description

U8A steel is used: for the manufacture of tools, working in conditions without heating of cutting edge; the tool for tree processing (milling cutters, countersinks, zekovic, axes, chisels, chisels, longitudinal, and circular saws; rollers, plates and rods for mold molding tin-swinomish alloys; calibers simple form and low accuracy classes; cold-rolled heat-treated ribbon with a thickness of from 2.5 to 0.02 mm, intended for manufacturing of flat and wire springs and spring-loaded parts of complex configuration (valves, styli, reeds, slats dolnych knives structural fine details, including hours, etc. (tape is produced according to GOST 2283, GOST 21996 and a number of special technical conditions); cold-rolled heat-treated ribbon with a thickness of 0.05 to 1.30 mm and rolled heat-treated strip thickness 0.15−2.00 mm for the manufacture of spring details and springs, with the exception of the crown; measuring tapes.

Chemical composition

Standard C S P Mn Cr Si Ni Fe Cu
GOST 1435-99 0.75-0.84 ≤0.018 ≤0.025 0.17-0.28 ≤0.2 0.17-0.33 ≤0.25 Rest ≤0.25
Fe is the basis.
According to GOST 1435-99, the mass fraction of chromium, nickel and copper is indicated for 1 group of metal products. The mass fraction of sulfur in steel obtained by the electroslag remelting method should not exceed 0.013%. In the metal products of the 2nd group, the mass fraction of Cr ≤ 0.12%, Ni ≤ 0.12%, Cu ≤0.20% and their total mass fraction ≤ 0.40%. In the metal products of the third group, the mass fraction of Cr ≤ 0.20-0.40%, Ni ≤ 0.25%, Cu ≤0.25%. In metal products of the 1 st and 3 rd groups, made of steel obtained by scrap-process, the mass fractions of nickel, copper and chromium are increased by 0.05% of each element as compared to those in the table. In a metal designed for the manufacture of cold-rolled strip, an increase in the mass fraction of nickel, copper and chromium is not allowed.
According to TU 14-1-505-73 in the steel grade U8A, intended for the manufacture of wire for the metal cord, the carbon content should be 0.74-0.80%. By agreement of the parties for special purpose hardware, steel must be supplied with reduced content limits of elements without treatment with synthetic slag and purging with argon.
For the tape according to TU 14-1-2993-80 produced in accordance with GOST 2283, the deviation in chromium content is allowed up to +0,020%.
