Quenched and tempered steels are engineering steels specifically developed for applications requiring high mechanical strength, toughness and wear resistance. Thanks to the superior mechanical properties obtained through heat treatment (hardening and tempering), they perform reliably under heavy loads. They contain higher levels of carbon than other grades.

Offering long service life thanks to their high tensile strength, impact resistance and fatigue strength, quenched and tempered steels retain their performance even in harsh operating conditions, providing reliable and efficient solutions for businesses.

Because of the superior mechanical properties achieved after quenching and tempering, these steels are used in machine and metal parts, various machine and engine components, forgings, various bolts, nuts and studs, crankshafts, gun barrels, piston rods and similar applications. They are especially preferred in the automotive, defence, aerospace and energy sectors.
