55Si2Mn spring steel silicon and manganese improve flexibility strength and yield ratio, improved hardenability, temper resistance and resistance to relaxation stability, thermal sensitivity is also smaller, but decarbonization tend to be larger, especially silicon and carbon content when high, easy graphitization of carbon, the steel becomes brittle. 55Si2Mn spring steel used for cars, tractors and motorcycles on the damping spring and coil springs, cylinder valve springs, thermal springs are also used to use the following 250 ℃.
