Quote:SAE 8620 is a great choice. It happens to be the steel that is used for Constant Velocity Joints (Outer Races, Inner Races and Cages). After case hardening to a depth of .008 to .010 in., the parts become extremely wear resistant and tough.
Steel of choice would be 8620. Plan on case hardening it after engraving. There are several shops that you can send it to for color case hardening, Doug Turnbull being at the head of the pack.
