Material Description

Material Number	Material Number (single)	Standard	Scope	Standard Status	Country	Predecessor	Successor	VDA 231-106 classification
1.7160 (DIN EN ISO 683-3 : 2019-04)	1.7160	DIN EN ISO 683-3 : 2019-04	DIN EN ISO 683-3 : 2019-04 replaced by DIN EN ISO 683-3 : 2022-06	Replaced	Germany	16MnCrB5	16MnCrB5	1.1	1)
1) Remark: Steel 16MnCrB5 is suitable for parts in vehicle manufacturing and machine engineering, that are predominantly wear loaded and that should have a very favorable ductility behaviour in case-hardened condition (e.g. piston pins, camshafts).
