1. Descripción general
60Si2Mn (equivalent to SUP7 in JIS) is a silicon-manganese alloy spring steel well known for its alta resistencia, tenacidad, and superior fatigue resistance.
It is one of the most widely used spring steels for automotive suspension, mechanical springs, and heavy-load applications.
Jiaxiao MTC supplies 60Si2Mn alloy steel strips in both cold rolled annealed y curtido & templado conditions, providing customers with stable performance, excelente planitud, and tight dimensional tolerances.
2. Chemical Composition and Equivalent Grades
| Estándar | Equivalent Grades | C (%) | Minnesota (%) | Y (%) | P max | S max |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| DE | 60Si2Mn | 0.52–0.65 | 0.60–0.90 | 1.50–2.00 | ≤0,035 | ≤0,035 |
| ÉL | SUP7 | — | — | — | — | — |
El high silicon content (arriba a 2.00%) provides excellent elasticity and fatigue resistance, while manganese contributes to toughness and hardenability.
3. Production and Heat Treatment
Jiaxiao MTC utilizes a complete in-house production line to ensure quality consistency:
- Raw Material Selection:
High-quality hot rolled steel coils from ISO-certified sources. - Acid Pickling:
Removes oxide layers and impurities to ensure a clean surface before rolling. - Laminado en frío:
Reduces thickness and enhances precision, with tight control over flatness. - Recocido (for soft condition):
Improves ductility for subsequent forming or stamping processes. - Hardening and Tempering (for finished condition):
- Hardening temperature: aprox. 850–880°C
- Tempering temperature: 400–550°C
This treatment yields an optimal balance of high tensile strength, elasticidad, y impact toughness.
- Edge and Surface Finishing:
Options include pulido, brillante, o blue/yellow tempered surfaces, with abertura, redondeado, or square edges.
