Chromium vanadium is a popular type of steel made by alloying chromium, carbon, vanadium, and other metals. CISI provides chromium vanadium springs for various industrial applications. These springs offer benefits of specific load tolerances, hardness, corrosion resistance, and stress-reliever characteristics due to their typical chemical composition. Hence, these steel springs are employed for high impact load, and high stress applications. Also, these steel springs will perform well in extreme temperatures.
This alloy is produced by combining chemicals in various proportions. The percentage of each component will vary as per the desired characteristics of the finished product. The following technical information will help you understand the composition, as well as mechanical properties of this alloy.
