Numeric designation1.7027
Chemical designation20Cr4
Statedual-phase structure
Etching3% Nital

This 20Cr4 was partially austenitised and quenched. The former pearlite particles were transformed into martensite by subsequent quenching. The former pearlite lamellae can still be partially recognised as a substructure. The edge is decarburised to a depth of approx. 400 µm.
