  2. Rockwell scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rockwell_scale

    Hugh M. Rockwell (1890–1957) and Stanley P. Rockwell (1886–1940) from Connecticut in the United States co-invented the "Rockwell hardness tester," a differential-depth machine. They applied for a patent on July 15, 1914. [4] The requirement for this tester was to quickly determine the effects of heat treatment on steel bearing races.

  3. Heat treating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_treating

    Heat treating furnace at 1,800 °F (980 °C) Heat treating (or heat treatment) is a group of industrial, thermal and metalworking processes used to alter the physical, and sometimes chemical, properties of a material. The most common application is metallurgical. Heat treatments are also used in the manufacture of many other materials, such as ...

  4. Austempering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Austempering

    Austempering is heat treatment that is applied to ferrous metals, most notably steel and ductile iron. In steel it produces a bainite microstructure whereas in cast irons it produces a structure of acicular ferrite and high carbon, stabilized austenite known as ausferrite. It is primarily used to improve mechanical properties or reduce ...

  5. 7075 aluminium alloy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/7075_aluminium_alloy

    7075 aluminium alloy. 7075 aluminium alloy (AA7075) is an aluminium alloy with zinc as the primary alloying element. It has excellent mechanical properties and exhibits good ductility, high strength, toughness, and good resistance to fatigue. It is more susceptible to embrittlement than many other aluminium alloys because of microsegregation ...

  6. Cryogenic hardening - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryogenic_hardening

    Cryogenic hardening. Cryogenic hardening is a cryogenic treatment process where the material is cooled to approximately −185 °C (−301 °F), usually using liquid nitrogen. It can have a profound effect on the mechanical properties of certain steels, provided their composition and prior heat treatment are such that they retain some austenite ...

  7. Precipitation hardening - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Precipitation_hardening

    Precipitation hardening, also called age hardening or particle hardening, is a heat treatment technique used to increase the yield strength of malleable materials, including most structural alloys of aluminium, magnesium, nickel, titanium, and some steels, stainless steels, and duplex stainless steel. In superalloys, it is known to cause yield ...

  8. Differential heat treatment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differential_heat_treatment

    Differential heat treatment (also called selective heat treatment or local heat treatment) is a technique used during heat treating of steel to harden or soften certain areas of an object, creating a difference in hardness between these areas. There are many techniques for creating a difference in properties, but most can be defined as either ...

  9. Hydrogen embrittlement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_embrittlement

    Heat treatment (baking) was used to reduce hydrogen content. Lower bake times resulted in quicker fracture times due to higher hydrogen content. [25] Steel with an ultimate tensile strength of less than 1000 MPa (~145,000 psi) or hardness of less than HRC 32 on the Hardness Rockwell Scale is not generally considered susceptible to hydrogen ...
