95Cr18, 9Cr18 Stainless Steel Material Table Description

1. 95Cr18 (9Cr18 Steel)

Description

9Cr18 steel is a high-carbon, high-chromium martensitic stainless steel known for its high hardness, high wear resistance, and corrosion resistance after quenching. This steel is ideal for manufacturing plastic molds that must endure high wear, heavy loads, and corrosive environments. However, due to the steel's tendency to form uneven carbide segregation, which can impact the mold's service life, thermal processing must be strictly controlled, and appropriate processing ratios should be maintained.

Compared to Cr17 steel, 9Cr18 offers improved corrosion resistance while maintaining similar properties. It is primarily used in the manufacture of high-strength, wear-resistant components such as shafts, pumps, valve parts, rods, springs, and fasteners. Special attention should be given to production to prevent the formation of non-uniform carbides, which can affect the quality and performance of the steel.

Needle Roller Bearing: Types and Catalogs

Needle roller bearings, are a type of rolling bearing characterized by their slender and elongated needle-shaped rollers. Compared to ball bearings, needle roller bearings have a smaller cross-sectional area and volume but possess higher load-carrying capacity. This makes needle roller bearings excel in applications with limited space, particularly in cases of radial space constraints.

Introduction to Bearings: Basic knowledge

It is commonly referred to as "bearing" in English, while in Taiwan, it is usually called "軸承". The fundamental principle of a bearing involves the placement of rolling elements, such as balls, needles, or rollers, between the inner and outer rings to facilitate smooth rotation of the shaft.

Types of Bearings

Generally speaking, a reducer bearing is a device used for rotary or linear rotation, while friction and handling motion occurs. In effect, the bearing surface device is capable of rolling, which causes friction between the bearing surface wheel rolls. When this restraining force is also reduced, it is very easy to move in a rotational or linear fashion - increasing speed and efficiency.
