I have a gear drawing with "Quality 8-CH-13" designation. I suppose the quality class required is 8, but what does the 13 stand for?

Just a guess. But if CH means Carburized & Hardened then the 8 could be the quality before CH and the 13 could be the quality after CH. Often the process is to hob the gear, heattreat it, and then finish grind.
 
never guess

the Q-8 CH 13

The CH 13 = alloysteel carburized 55 HRc min
