Effect of Ageing Annealing on Strength Properties of Carbon Steel

The advantages of cold drawn carbon steel include high precision, high mechanical properties, which are widely used in the automotive industry. The mechanical properties of this type of cold drawn steel are strict, and it has strong tensile strength compared with ordinary carbon steel. And the yield strength, elongation after break, hardness and other performance indicators are higher than the national standard. The strength index of the production process after annealing, straightening, drawing and polishing according to the conventional process route can reach 550 MPa or more. Many users require higher performance steel to increase the life of the workpiece. By improving the surface reduction rate before the finished product is processed, the performance index can reach 720 MPa, especially the tensile strength reaches 750 MPa or more. According to the previous process route, the tensile strength of the finished product is up to 700MPa, which is for the production of high mechanical tensile strength 735MPa to 900MPa, yield strength ≥430MPa, elongation after fracture ≥7%, hardness HB210-HB265, such as cold drawn steel material C45.
The steel after cold drawing deformation is heated to a certain temperature after aging heat treatment for heat preservation. Since the steel after cold drawing has a metastable structure, the mechanical properties and physical properties of the steel change with the increase of the holding time at a certain temperature, and there is no significant change in the microstructure of the steel to achieve improvement to improve mechanical properties and reach the purpose of stabilizing steel size and shape. The strength of the cold drawn steel after aging is improved, and it is considered that the fine particles such as cementite and oxide which are decomposed in the ferrite inside the steel strengthen the steel. Regarding the aging treatment temperature, the furnace and the steel type in the production process can be used according to the specific conditions, and some adopt aging treatment at 200°C to 300°C or 380°C to 400°C, and also adopt higher temperature. When the steel material is heat-treated, the steel material heat-treated by the same heat treatment system can be treated in the same furnace for convenience, and the mechanical properties of India and steel are analyzed by representative samples, and the analysis is continuously improved to help users obtain the products they need.

What are railway rail fasteners?

What are railway rail fasteners? Railway rail fasteners Railway rail fasteners are a kind of railway accessories. The parts used to combine rails and sleepers (or other types of under-rail foundations) on the track are also called central joint parts. Its function is to fix the steel rail on the sleeper, maintain the gauge and prevent the longitudinal and lateral movement of the rail relative to the sleeper. The railway rail fastener system is divided into the shrapnel fastener system, gusset fastener system, and elastic strip fastener system. The gusset-type fastener is composed of a gusset plate, a threaded spike, a spring washer, an iron seat, and a buffer pad. The threaded spike is anchored in the reserved hole of the concrete sleeper bearing platform with sulfur cement mortar, and then bolts are used to fasten the buckle. Plate fastened. There are elastic strips I, II, and III types of clip fasteners. Type I elastic strip is composed of ω elastic strip,  screw spike , gauge b...

South Korea’s Hot Rolled Steel Plate Production Will Decline this Year

South Korea’s Hot Rolled Steel Plate Production Will Decline this Year It is predicted that Korean domestic production of  hot rolled steel plate  will decline this year due to weak market demand. In the first half of the year, Korean domestic production of hot rolled steel plate was 6.048 million tons, a decrease of 4.8% year-on-year. The main reason for the reduction in production is the large-scale maintenance of related equipment, especially in September and October. Another reason is the recent weakening of demand in the domestic market in Korea. In the second half of this year, besides the small rebound in market demand in the construction industry, the consumption prospects of other downstream steel industries are bleak. However, considering the intensification of trade tensions between Japan and South Korea, South Korea may cut import of hot rolled steel plate, cold rolled steel sheets and pipes from Japan. Therefore, Korean hot rolled steel plate producers ...
