655M13 - 3.4% Nickel-Chromium Case Hardening Steel
Surcharge
Both Scrap and most alloys saw a small increase going into April, meaning surcharges for the majority of grades increased slightly.
Nickel has been rising steadily (albeit not significantly) in recent weeks and therefore we would expect to see this filter through to the surcharges in the coming weeks.
Surcharge information as listed via Liberty Speciality Steels where possible, other based on mean chemical analysis for the given grade.

Description
655M13 grade steel is a nickel-chromium alloy case-hardening steel that is specified for heavy duty highly-stressed applications.
When carburised and hardened core strengths of 850 - 1230 N/mm² are attainable.
The presence of chromium increases hardenability whilst the nickel content increases toughness and resistance to stock.
Typical applications of 655M13 grade steel
- High duty gears for aircraft
- Heavy vehicle and automobile transmission components
- Steering worms
- Track rod pins
- Timing wheels
- Breech mechanisms
- Small arms parts
655M13 steel is still often referred to as EN36 steel - its equivalent grade under the previous BS 970: 1955 standard.
