Hello
Does a "Lynker" know the elastic strength of the 55CrNiMoV5 plastal steel?
Thank you.

Hello
I couldn't find an answer on the internet, but why not ask the manufacturer directly?
Aubert Duval?

Hello
I haven't found anything better either. The manufacturer's sheet only gives the breaking limit.
As a general rule, on this kind of very hard steel, you can't find this kind of information. The elongations are indeed very low and can therefore become brittle.
In other words, the yield strength is going to be very close to the breaking limit but it's going to be reached very quickly. It cannot therefore be used as structural steel because they would be fragile in the event of impacts, for example.
To make a mold (since this is the basic purpose of this steel) it is not a problem because there is only a compression on the surface and it is done in a progressive and uniform way.
So I don't know exactly what you plan to do with it but pay attention to the type of use.

"This steel is delivered in a ready-to-use state with a Brinell hardness of about 400, i.e. by equivalence a breaking strength of about 1400 N/mm2. "
