Y20 free-cutting steel
Y20 free-cutting steel combines good machinability and stable performance, ideal for precision parts like bolts and shafts in mass-production machining applications.
Key words:
Detail
Product Description:
Y20 is a medium-carbon free-cutting steel known for its good machinability and moderate strength. By adding sulfur and phosphorus, it achieves improved chip breaking and reduced cutting resistance. Y20 provides a smooth cutting process, excellent surface finish, and stable performance, making it suitable for automatic lathes and precision machining operations.
This steel offers balanced mechanical properties and consistent machining quality, ideal for producing bolts, nuts, shafts, pins, and other small mechanical components. It is widely applied in the automotive, electrical, and machinery industries, where efficient production and precise dimensions are required without compromising surface quality.
Y20 maintains reliable processing stability during high-speed machining, extending tool life and improving productivity. However, its weldability and impact toughness are limited due to sulfur and phosphorus content. Therefore, it is best suited for parts under light or moderate loads that prioritize machinability over mechanical strength.
