D6AC VAC Steel Alloy Forgings

D6AC VAC Steel Alloy Forgings: Ultra-High Strength, Aerospace-Grade Steel for Extreme Applications

D6AC VAC Steel Alloy Forgings are a vacuum-arc remelted, low-alloy steel known for their exceptional strength, toughness, and fracture resistance. Engineered for aerospace and defense applications, these forgings offer superior fatigue performance, making them ideal for components exposed to extreme stress and demanding environments.

At Hub Metals and Trading Inc., we supply premium-quality D6AC VAC Steel Alloy Forgings tailored for critical applications where mechanical integrity and reliability are essential.

D6AC VAC Steel Alloy Forgings are composed of Chromium (0.80-1.10%), Molybdenum (0.85-1.15%), Carbon (0.42-0.48%), and Vanadium (0.15-0.20%), along with trace elements of manganese and silicon. The vacuum arc remelting process (VAR) ensures minimal impurities, enhancing the material’s mechanical properties.

Key Features:

  • Ultra-High Strength: Exceptional tensile and yield strength for structural integrity.
  • Vacuum Arc Remelted (VAR): Reduced impurities for superior material quality.
  • Fracture Resistant: Designed to prevent cracking under extreme loads.
  • Fatigue Resistant: Ideal for cyclic stress environments.
  • Heat Treatable: Can be quenched and tempered for increased hardness and durability.
