Interpretation of steel grade St2sp

Decoding of steel: The letter at the beginning indicates a group of steel which defines the criteria for the ultimate strength for the chemical composition; if there is no letter, then such steel belongs to group A, and is supplied to consumers based on mechanical properties (such steel may have a high sulfur or phosphorus content). Letters St. indicate that the steel is of ordinary quality, although most steels are high quality. The numbers from 0 to 6 are the conventional brand number depending on the chemical composition and mechanical properties. Typically, the higher the number, the more carbon and the greater the strength. In our case, 2 indicates the carbon content in the alloy is 0.09–0.15%. The letters after the brand number indicate the degree of deoxidation: cn - calm. In terms of price, calm steels have become more expensive than semi-calm and boiling steels. Mild steel is steel obtained as a result of deoxidation. It is obtained by deoxidation with aluminum, manganese and silicon. The level of oxygen in it is so reduced that during metal processing no reaction occurs between carbon and oxygen, and the presence of non-metallic slags and their inclusion is reduced to a minimum. Calm steel has a dense structure and good mechanical properties. It is less prone to negative reactions to welding heat and to aging. The features of a homogeneous microstructure give the alloy maximum corrosion resistance and ductility.

Chemical composition

Alloy D2 belongs to cutting high-carbon alloy steels and has the following composition:

  • carbon (C) – 1.55%;
  • manganese (Mn) – 0.35%;
  • chromium (Cr) – 11-13%;
  • silicon (Si) – 0.45%;
  • molybdenum (Mo) – 0.9%;
  • vanadium (V) – 0.9%;
  • phosphorus (P) – 0.03%;
  • sulfur (S) – 0.03%.

With the help of manganese, the hardening process occurs. The element does not worsen the toughness of steel, but increases its strength and improves the structure of the product.

Alloy D2 has the highest degree of corrosion resistance among high carbon steels. When the composition contains up to 13% chromium, the alloy is called semi-stainless, but the formation of rust depends on the contact of the product with an aggressive environment, the processing method and other factors. Chromium increases the viscosity and hardness of the metal, and provides less susceptibility to wear.

Silicon gives the alloy strength and elasticity.

Molybdenum facilitates hardening. It enhances the ability of steel to be annealed, evenly distributing the internal stress that arises in the process. Adds strength, hardness, and increases corrosion resistance. Adds resistance to high temperatures to the product.

Vanadium improves hardenability, provides strength and lack of fragility.

Carbon is the main element, like most alloys. Gives the metal greater strength, sharpness, and increased toughness.

The content of sulfur and phosphorus, which are considered harmful impurities, is brought to a minimum, and in such quantities they do not have a negative effect on the alloy.
