Hello
I am looking for the physical properties of the Z 160 CDV 12 (1.2379) steel to integrate it into the solidworks materials database.
Modulus of Elasticity, Tensile Strength, Yield Strength, Coeff. of fish, etc ....
Thank you in advance. Cdt.

Here is some information about the steel in question.
Thanks, but it doesn't give the elastic limit.

Z 160 CDV 12 is a former steel designation.
Today, it's more like X160CrMoV12

Hello
Be careful, however, if you want to make RDM calculations with steels of this type.
The interest of hard steels is essentially their high resistance to compression (pins, etc.) or abrasion (drilling barrel, cutting tools, etc.).
On the other hand, they generally make rather bad classic "structural" steels. These hardness properties are superficial and tend to make them brittle. For example, on a worn cutting tool, it is not just "filed" but parts of material have been torn off because the tool has cracked locally.
The notion of elastic limit must therefore be put into perspective in this case.

Small question almost HS

I had never asked myself the question because it would not have occurred to me to make a simu on steel that could be quenched and tempered.
Don't scream or laugh please, here's the question:
The elements as a limit of resistance, etc. Are the properties of the materials raw steel before treatment (i.e . at the time of machining if we are not in conventional machining) or is it after the different heat treatment that the steel will undergo.
For me it's the resistors before heat treatment, so what about the parameters to adopt if you wanted to do a simulation after heat treatments.
