8620 Round Bar: Material Profile
8620 is widely used for carburized components that must resist surface wear while absorbing impact and shock.
Its low carbon content supports machining before heat treatment, while alloy additions improve toughness and hardenability.
Purchase to the controlling ASTM, SAE, AMS, or customer specification. Section size, supply condition, mechanical properties, surface limits, testing, and heat/lot traceability can change the acceptable material and processing route.
Key Characteristics
- Excellent case-hardening response
- Tough, ductile core
- Good machinability
- Good wear and impact resistance
Common Applications
- Gears and pinions
- Bushings and sleeves
- Shafts and arbors
- Bearings and heavy-machinery components

Request Pricing for 8620 Round Bar
We quote 8620 for manufacturers and commercial buyers. Requirements of 3,000–10,000 lb are welcome, along with multi-ton and truckload programs.
We are not a retail metal store. Small personal-use, typical single-bar, and cut-piece orders are generally not a fit. The material field is prefilled and remains editable; add the specification, size, condition, total weight, processing, testing, required date, and ship-to location.
