The advantages of CK45 F-1140 cylinder rod induction hardened
CK45 F-1140 cylinder rod induction hardened is a steel within the UNE standard for unalloyed steels for induction hardening. Its equivalence in the UNE standard would be the F-1140. This is a carbon steel for applications in machinery parts with an average resistance of between 70-90 Kg/mm2. This steel has a wide range of uses, parts for agricultural machinery and for the automobile in general: cylinder rods, sleeves, screws, levers, wheel hubs, etc. In F1140 steel, surface hardening is recommended in multiple applications. The equivalence of F1140 steel in the DIN standard is CK 45. Induction hardening means that the cylinder steel rod becomes a veritable powerhouse. It’s also clear why it is used for our most precise tools like surgical instruments and mechanical parts like gears and springs.
