30CrMoV9
1.7707THE Cr-Mo-V nitriding steel — Cr 2.3-2.7% forms hard CrN nitrided case (800 HV surface). V addition for secondary hardening. Core QT to UTS 1080-1270 MPa before nitriding at 570-580°C. Used for piston rods, valve stems, cylinder liners, turbine parts, and any component needing extreme surface hardness + fatigue resistance without distortion (low nitriding temp).
