BS S98 Steel Bar

Superior tensile & yield strength.


BS S98 offers good creep resistance and toughness and good performance at elevated temperatures.

BS S98 aerospace steel bars offer high tensile strength and toughness.


BS S98 steel bars offer high strength and toughness and finds typical suitability in applications where superior tensile and yield strength is required. This case-hardened steel contains nickel, chromium and molybdenum as key alloying elements and offers 730HV after carburising, quenching, sub-zero treatment and tempering processes. Produced to British Standards, steel bars and forgings should be ultrasonically examined if at all possible.


Creep Resistance

BS S98 offers good creep resistance and toughness and good performance at elevated temperatures. Although known as aerospace-grade steel, the alloy also finds use in various commercial engineering applications, including oil & gas and motorsport. The material is used to produce hydraulic shafts, connecting rods, sockets and spindles.
