AISI 8620 Steel
is a low alloy nickel, chromium, molybdenum case hardening steel,
generally supplied in the as rolled condition with a maximum hardness HB
255max. SAE steel 8620 offers high external strength and good internal
strength, making it highly wear resistant. AISI 8620 steel has a higher
core strength than grades 8615 and 8617.
SAE 8620 alloy steel is
flexible during hardening treatments, thus enabling improvement of
case/core properties. Pre hardened and tempered (uncarburized) 8620 can
be further surface hardened by nitriding but will not respond
satisfactorily to flame or induction hardening due to its low carbon
content.
Steel 8620 is suited for applications which require a
combination of toughness and wear resistance. This grade is commonly
supplied in round bar.

5. Forging of Material 8620 Steel
AISI
8620 alloy steel is forged at a start temperature of around 2250ºF
(1230ºC) down to approximately 1700ºF(925ºC.) prior to the hardening
heat treatment or carburizing. The alloy is air cooled after forging.
6. ASTM 8620 Steel Heat Treatment
-
Annealing
AISI
8620 steel may be given a full anneal by heat to 820℃ – 850℃, and hold
until temperature is uniform throughout the section and cool in furnace
or air cooled.
-
Tempering
Tempering
of heat treated and water quenched parts of 8620 steels (not
carburized) is done at 400 F to 1300 F to improve case toughness with
minimal effect on its hardness. This will also reduce the possibility of
grinding cracks.
-
Hardening
The
AISI steel 8620 will be austenitized at around 840°C – 870°C, and oil
or water quenched depending upon section size and intricacy. Cool in Air
or Oil required.
-
Normalizing
1675ºF
(910ºC) and air cool. This is another method of improving machinability
in 8620 material; normalizing might also be used prior to case
hardening.
7. Machinability of SAE 8620 Steel
The
8620 alloy steel is readily machined after heat treatment and/or
carburizing, should be at a minimum so as not to impair the hardened
case of the part. Machining may be done by conventional means prior to
heat treatment – after carburizing machining is usually limited to
grinding.
8. Welding of 8620 Materials
The
alloy 8620 may be welded as rolled condition by conventional methods,
usually gas or arc welding. Preheating at 400 F is beneficial and
subsequent heating after welding is recommended – consult the approved
weld procedure for the method used. However, welding in the case
hardened or through hardened condition is not recommended
9. Application of ASTM 8620 Steel
AISI
8620 steel material is used extensively by all industry sectors for
light to medium stressed components and shafts requiring high surface
wear resistance with reasonable core strength and impact properties.
Typical
applications are: Arbors, Bearings, Bushings, Cam Shafts, Differential
Pinions, Guide Pins, King Pins, Pistons Pins, Gears, Splined Shafts,
Ratchets, Sleeves and other applications where it is helpful to have a
steel that can be readily machined and carburized to controlled case
depths.
This is Part 4 in my Myths About Guitars series.
The Copper Development Association is pleased to present a series of video presentations covering the welding of the copper-nickel alloy. This video is the second in a series designed to provide welders with the principles of joining 90-10 and 70-30 engineering grades of copper-nickel. Here we consider TIG welding.
To recap, in our first video, we covered preparation for welding.
- Maintain a high level of cleanliness and avoid contamination which can cause weld cracking
- Preheat and post weld heat treatments are unnecessary
We are assuming that all viewing this video are familiar with the basics of welding and our message is to point out where the copper-nickel alloys are different and exceptions are needed.
Direct current electrode negative is the welding current used for TIG welding of copper nickel alloys. The welding power source should have a down-slope or current decay as well as a lift or high frequency start to minimize defects at the start and end of each pass.
The tungsten electrode used for TIG welding copper-nickel can be the same as the one used for welding other alloys such as stainless steel or nickel alloys.
The end of the electrode is beveled by always grinding it in the longitudinal direction. The grinding should be done on a grinding wheel dedicated to tungsten electrodes to prevent contamination.
The filler metal used for welding both the 90-10 and 70-30 alloys is the 70-30 alloy. In making any copper-nickel weld it is good practice to always add filler metal when possible to provide an optimum weld composition.
The shielding gas for gas tungsten arc welding of copper-nickel is 100% argon. The cup size should be as large as practical provided it does not interfere with welder visibility. A gas lens often improves the gas protection and can allow extending the electrode for welding in areas of tight access.
The torch should be held to about a 15º angle back from the direction of travel and filler metal about 90º from the torch or 15º off the work piece. Tilting the torch to a much greater angle tends to reduce the shielding gas protection and the filler metal should always be held within the inert gas shield area. If the filler metal end becomes oxidized, the end should be cut off.
Visually inspect the weld contour and look for defects such as cracks, undercut, or lack of fusion.
In addition to this video presentation there is also free printed literature covering all aspects of fabrication, welding, corrosion resistance and other subjects of help to all involved with the alloys. We invite you to visit www.coppernickel.org or contact jim.michel@copperalliance.us to access this literature.
