EN36 (655M13)

High tensile steel

EN26 | 826M40 Engineering steel

EN36 | 655M13 is a carburising steel grade with very high surface strength with a soft but strong core. The material retains a remarkable degree of toughness. With high tensile strength, EN36 is used in the production of numerous high strength parts including crankshafts in the automotive and aerospace sector.

EN36 | 655M13 steel grade offers high tensile strength and deep hardening due to the alloys nickel and chrome content. With excellent toughness and fatigue resistance, this carburising steel grade offers a very high surface strength with a soft but strong core.

Steel stock range

High Peak Steels stock EN36 | 655M13 in black steel round bar and bright steel round bar.
