AISI 5160 Spring Steel: Properties, Uses & Manufacturing Guide
If you need springs that handle heavy loads and resist fatigue—like truck suspensions or high-performance engine valves—standard carbon spring steels might fall short. AISI 5160 spring steel—a chromium-alloyed medium-carbon steel—solves this. Its unique mix of carbon and chromium delivers superior strength, hardenability, and fatigue resistance, making it a top choice for demanding spring and gear applications. This guide […]
