Abstract: | Conclusions We measured the static bending strength, the hardness, and the impact strength of steels with low hardenability after induction heating followed by quenching and low-temperature tempering. We have recommended optimum quenching temperatures, tempering temperatures (in the case of induction heating), and the hardenability of steels for machine parts of different sizes. We have shown that the static bending strength and the impact strength of samples of quenched carbon steels are as high as those of case-hardened alloy steels.Translated from Metallovedenie i Termicheskaya Obrabotka Metallov, No. 6, pp. 35–42, June, 1963 |
