EN 8 material, also known as 1040 carbon steel, is a medium-carbon engineering steel valued for its strength, machinability, and moderate wear resistance. EN 8 steel is commonly used in general engineering applications where reliable mechanical performance is required.
As established steel manufacturers in UAE supplying ferrous metals across Oman and Saudi Arabia, we provide EN 8 material in standard and custom sizes. The consistent quality of AISI 1040 carbon steel makes it suitable for shafts, pins, gears, and mechanical components.
Key Advantages of EN 8 Steel
- Medium-carbon steel with good strength and toughness
- Excellent machinability in as-supplied condition
- Suitable for flame or induction surface hardening
- Ideal for shafts, pins, gears, and engineering parts
- Supplied by reliable steel manufacturers in UAE and the Gulf region
