What is EN31 Steel/EN31 Material?
EN31 steel/EN31 Material is a high-carbon alloy steel, renowned for its high degree of hardness, tensile strength, and excellent wear resistance. It is widely used in:
-
Bearing manufacturing
-
Automotive components
-
Cutting tools
-
Tool holders
-
Press tools
-
Dies and punches
Due to its high hardness and durability, EN31 Material/EN31 steel can withstand heavy-duty working conditions that demand a long service life and dimensional stability. It is considered the go-to material for precision engineering applications where high surface hardness combined with core toughness is required.
At Milano Special Steel, we supply EN31 steel plates, forged rounds, and blocks in both standard sizes and customized cut pieces, ensuring solutions tailored to specific customer needs.
EN31 Material/ EN31 steel Chemical Composition
To maintain consistent performance, our EN31 steels are manufactured and supplied with exact chemical compositions that meet national and international standards.
The typical chemical composition of EN31 alloy steel is as follows:
-
Carbon (C): 0.90 – 1.20%
-
Chromium (Cr): 1.00 – 1.60%
-
Manganese (Mn): 0.30 – 0.75%
-
Silicon (Si): 0.10 – 0.35%
-
Sulphur (S): ≤ 0.05%
-
Phosphorus (P): ≤ 0.05%
-
Molybdenum (Mo): ≤ 0.10% (optional trace)
This composition gives EN31 steel its superior hardness and wear resistance while retaining appreciable toughness after heat treatment.
Mechanical Properties of EN31 Material/EN31 steel
-
Tensile Strength: 750 – 1000 N/mm²
-
Yield Strength: ≥ 450 N/mm²
-
Hardness (Annealed): 200 – 250 HB
-
Hardness (Hardened & Tempered): 55 – 62 HRC
-
Elongation: Around 8 – 10%
These properties make EN31 steel highly reliable for use in forging, machining, and cutting tools, as well as in high-wear applications.

Applications of EN31 Material
EN31 is a versatile steel grade widely used across different industries due to its high hardness, strength, and wear resistance. Industries we serve include:
-
Automotive Industry – For manufacturing shafts, gears, bearings, and heavy-duty engine components.
-
Cutting Tool Industry – For making cutting dies, punches, and presses.
-
Forging Industry – For heavy-duty forged tools, blocks, and die plates.
-

-
Plastic Mould Industry – For high-wear molds requiring hardness with dimensional stability.
-
Aluminum and Pressure Die Casting – For die blocks and inserts operating in wear-intensive conditions.
Our EN31 plates and rounds are preferred for industrial applications where toughness, surface hardness, and precision machining are essential.
Heat Treatment of EN31 Material (EN31 steel)
EN31 steel has excellent heat-treating characteristics. Depending on industrial requirements, it can be annealed, quenched, and tempered to achieve specific levels of hardness and toughness.
-
Annealing: Heat to 800–820°C, then cool in the furnace.
-
Hardening: Heat to 820–850°C, then quench in oil.
-
Tempering: Heat to 150 – 200°C after quenching to achieve the desired HRC (55-62).
This makes EN31 steel highly adaptable for industries that demand tailor-made mechanical properties.
