This invention discloses a high-life, low-cost, large-size round
steel bar for hydraulic breaker chisels and its manufacturing method. The
chemical composition of the round
steel bar, by
mass percentage, is: C: 0.32~0.42%, Si: 0.5~1.4%, Mn: 0.80~1.50%, P: ≤0.025%, S: ≤0.015%, Cr: 1.00~1.40%, Cu: ≤0.25%, Mo: 0.05~0.10%, Nb: 0.02~0.04%, Al: 0.015~0.035%, H: ≤0.0002%, with the balance being Fe and unavoidable impurities. The
diameter of the round
steel bar ranges from 150 to 250 mm. The manufacturing method includes converter / electric furnace
smelting, LF refining, RH / VD degassing,
continuous casting, billet surface treatment, round steel rolling, and cooling processes, each with precise process
parameter control. The round steel prepared by this invention has good
hardenability and excellent strength-
toughness matching. The service life of the
drill rod made from it is 2-3 times longer than that of 42CrMo, and the amount of Mo added is significantly reduced, effectively controlling production costs. At the same time, it improves the
atmospheric corrosion resistance of the
drill rod, making it suitable for large-scale hydraulic breakers in mining, building demolition and other fields.
