86L20 STEEL BAR STOCK

Extremely Strong and Durable 86L20 Steel Bar Stock

86L20 steel bar stock is a low-carbon nickel-chromium-molybdenum alloy steel known for its excellent carburizing properties. This grade delivers a unique combination of high surface hardness, case toughness, and core strength, making it ideal for demanding applications such as gears, shafts, and pinions.

Mechanical Properties of 86L20 Steel

  • Tensile Strength: 75–95 ksi
  • Yield Strength: 50–80 ksi
  • Elongation (in 2”): 17–35%
  • Case Hardness: Excellent carbide formation ensures superior wear resistance
  • Toughness: Above-average core toughness with shock resistance

Key Benefits

  • Carburized Performance – Maintains a hard surface layer while keeping a ductile, strong core.
  • Wear Resistance – Carbide formation improves hardness and extends part life in heavy-duty applications.
  • Temperature Resistance – Performs well under both high and low temperature conditions.
  • Durability – Combines strength and toughness, ensuring reliability in industrial environments.

Common Applications of 86L20 Bar Stock

Thanks to its strength and toughness, 86L20 steel is widely used in:

  • Gears and gear shafts
  • Pinions and drive components
  • High-strength shafts
