Product data for Sanbar 23 hollow drill steel
Sanbar 23 is an air-hardening, high chromium-molybdenum alloy steel with good response to surface induction hardening and suitable for carburizing. It has high fatigue strength and wear resistance in the case hardened condition.
Applications
Sanbar 23 is used for extension rods, shank rods and tapered rods.
