1.6580 Steel Chemical Composition Analysis
It can be seen from the component contents in the above table that the combination of these elements in DIN 1.6580 steel endows it with excellent properties. It contains relatively high contents of nickel and chromium. The nickel element can improve its toughness, corrosion resistance, fatigue resistance and so on, while the chromium element enhances its strength, hardness and heat resistance, enabling DIN 1.6580 steel to adapt to complex and harsh working conditions. Moreover, the molybdenum element contained in 1.6580 steel can enhance the hardenability and wear resistance of the material, further improving its comprehensive performance. Meanwhile, other elements also play important roles.

Alloy 1.6580 Material Applications
Based on the application fields and specific application products where our clients purchase DIN 1.6580 steel, we’ve learned that this material is mainly widely used in mechanical engineering, the automotive industry, aerospace, oil and gas, mold manufacturing, the chemical industry, energy and so on.
Our clients often use this steel to manufacture various hydraulic cylinders, gears, bearings, transmission shafts, valves, couplings, molds, tools, aircraft landing gears, heavy machinery components, engine components, automotive parts and other transmission components.
1.6580 Alloy Steel Heat Treatment Process
The heat treatment process usually carried out for DIN 1.6580 steel is quenching + tempering:
Quenching: Heat the steel to 830 – 900 °C for quenching and then cool it rapidly to improve hardness and toughness.
Tempering: Tempering is conducted after quenching, generally at 500 – 650 °C, in order to eliminate internal stresses and improve toughness.
Through a reasonable heat treatment process, the required mechanical properties can be obtained, and the comprehensive properties of the material can be significantly improved, making it more suitable for high-load environments. The specific heat treatment process depends on the requirements of customers.
