Note
After computing the values for allowable bending stress number and for
allowable contact stress number, you should go to the data in AGMA Standard
2001-C95, to select a suitable material. Consider first whether the
material should be steel, cast iron, bronze, or plastic. Then consult the
related tables of data.

For instance use through-hardened steel with hardness, HB

Grade 1
