Applications
EN9 is used commonly for many general engineering applications. Typical applications include, shafts, axes,
knives, bushes, crankshafts, screws, sickles, wood working drills and hammers.
Forging
Preheat the component carefully, then raise the temperature to 1100C for forging. Do not forge below 850C.
After forging cool slowly, preferably in a furnace.
Annealing
Heat the steel slowly to 680-710C, soak well. Cool slowly in the furnace.
Hardening
Heat slowly to 820-840C and allow it to be heated through. Quench in oil, brine or water.
Tempering
Temper the EN9 steel component immediately after quenching whilst still hand warm. Re-heat to the tempering
temperature then soak for one hour per 25 millimetre of total thickness (2 hours minimum) Cool in air. For most
applications tempering of EN9 will be between 550-660C.
Welding
We recommend you contact your welding consumables supplier who should provide you full assistance and
information on welding EN9 steel.
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 EN9 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 EN9 carbon steel.
Certification
EN9 carbon steel is available with a cast and analysis certificate or a BS EN 10204 3.1 mill certificate, please
request when placing any orders.
