15CrNiMoA (EX30) is a low-carbon alloy carburizing steel widely used in high-performance transmission systems. It is designed to achieve a hard, wear-resistant surface after carburizing, while maintaining a tough and ductile core.

The combination of alloying elements:

Chromium (Cr): improves hardenability and wear resistance

Nickel (Ni): enhances toughness and impact resistance

Molybdenum (Mo): increases strength and prevents temper embrittlement

Compared with conventional carburizing steels like 20CrMnTi, 15CrNiMoA provides:

Better fatigue resistance under heavy load

Deeper carburized case depth

Improved impact performance in large gears

It is widely used in automotive, mining, and heavy-duty industrial gear systems.
