9310 ALLOY STEEL – AMS 6265 VAR - UNS 93106

9310 VAR AMS 6265 is a Chromium-Nickel-Molybdenum Alloy used as a Carburizing Grade for Aircraft Parts. Users can obtain high case hardness coupled with high core strength and toughness. High alloy content makes it suitable for use in relatively large cross-sections. Its combination of high alloy and low carbon content can achieve high core hardness with a narrow range between thicker and thinner part cross sections.

This alloy can be used in some applications without case-hardening, as it exhibits strength with excellent toughness and ductility. Carburizing offers a highly wear-resistant surface. Service Steel Aerospace stocks Premium Aircraft Quality produced double melted in an Electric Furnace, followed by a VAR, or Vacuum Arc Remelt (also known as CEVM). Standard air-melted Aircraft Quality AMS 6260 Air Melt material is available on request. 9310 VIM-VAR material is also available on request.
