How do I harden my S45C?
JIS Steel Grade S45C Steel Materials are applicable for the respective heat treatment operations.
- Full Annealing 800 – 850°C.
- Normalising 840 – 880°C.

- Tempering 550 – 660°C.
What is C45 steel?
C45 grade steel is a medium carbon steel offering moderate tensile strengths. The material is capable of through hardening by quenching and tempering on limited sections but can also be flame or induction hardened to Hrc 55. Machinability similar to that of mild steel can be expected, however weldability is reduced.
Is S45C magnetic?
The material of yoke is S45C steel used for structural purposes. Its magnetic property is shown in Fig. 5 and Table I.
How do you case harden EN8?
Hardening Heat the component slowly to 820-860°C and allow it to be heated through. Quench in oil or water. hand warm. Re-heat the EN8 component to the tempering temperature then soak for one hour per 25 millimetre of total thickness (2 hours minimum) Cool in air.
What is the hardness of C45?

How do you harden C45 steel?
The material is capable of through hardening by quenching and tempering on limited sections but can also be flame or induction hardened to Hrc 55.
What can you do with a C45 round bar?
Quenched and subsequently tempered steel for C45 steel grade round bar, steel plate, flat and square is used for axles, bolts, forged connecting rods, crankshafts, torsion bars, light gears, guide rods, screws, forgings, wheel tyres, shafts, sickles, axes, knives, wood working drills, hammers, etc.
What’s the hardness of s45c after heat treatment?
Usually we do quenching and tempering double heat treatment for S45C material. The hardness is not more than HRC40, the best is 35 to 38. Such as shafts, gears, are S45C quenching and tempering HRC35 ~ 36. The Max. hardness of S45C can be up to HRC60, but it’s too brittle, so it’s meaningless.
Why is JIS s45c and Din C45 used in machine parts?
It also can be called JIS S45C and DIN C45 steel. It is usually used in normalized condition because of its bad hardenability. It needs to be quenching and tempering treatment to get higher mechanical performance. It is used to manufacture machine parts with high strength requirements.
