Medeski,
Thank you for trying to help anyway. We sent our part off for material testing but I think that we might have also stumped them. Thanks again for the help. :)

Thank you for the website I was able to get some of it translated. I see the part that you are talking about it being VSL instead of VS1 and that could be a possibitly. I did not see on there an explanation of what the VSL strenghting method actually is or what they do to achive it. If you...
Yes, I have attached the section from the print that has S45CVS1 on it which is circled in red.http://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=5dff9823-73a8-49fc-8ab2-83606593bcd4&file=print.pdf
I am looking for the chemical breakdown for the material S45CVS1 or its ASTM OR AISI equivalent. Every website I visited calls for S45C but does not clarify what the VS1 means.
I am doing some research for my company This is the information that I have found we have japan's JIS as S45CVS1 people say it is equivalent to S45C or G4051. What are the remaining VS1 specs mean or what is the ASTM equivalent for gears not nuts A194-2h that people also keep showing.
Thank You
