A premium quality carburizing steel that offers high core strength, high fatigue strength, high temperature resistance and high hardenability versus AISI 9310, X53 (AMS 6308), EN36 and other standard carburizable alloys. Benefits of using Ferrium C64 include light weighting of components and increasing power density.

Applications:
Typical applications include power transmission shafts, gears and other demanding applications in aerospace, energy, and racing/off-road/mission-critical vehicles and other industries where weight savings, compactness, high temperature resistance and high surface fatigue resistance are valued. The ability of Ferrium C64 to achieve 62-64 HRC while also providing excellent core strength benefits highly-loaded components requiring wear and fatigue resistance. Ferrium C64 is being qualified by leading helicopter OEMs to replace X53 for next generation transmission gears.
