A new class of high strength, secondary hardening gear steels that are optimized for high-temperature, low-pressure (i.e., vacuum) carburization is being developed. These alloys were computationally designed as secondary-hardening steels at three different levels of case hardness. The exceptional case hardness, in combination with high core-strength and toughness properties, offer the potential to reduce drive train weight or increase power density relative to incumbent alloys such as AISI 9310 or Pyrowear® X53.

This new class of alloys utilizes an efficient nano-scale M2C carbide strengthening dispersion, and their key benefits include: high fatigue resistance (contact, bending, scoring); high hardenability achieved via low-pressure carburization (thus reducing quench distortion and associated manufacturing steps); a tempering temperature of >900°F to provide up to a 500°F increase in thermal stability relative to incumbent alloys; and core tensile strengths in excess of 200 ksi. Ferrium C69ÿ, is one alloy in this family that can achieve a carburized surface hardness of HRC 67 (with a microstructure substantially free of primary carbides), has exceptionally high contact fatigue resistance which make it an excellent candidate for applications such as camshafts and bearings as well as gear sets.
