imcjoek It has been my experience the a sub zero treatment -100 Deg F or better yet -300 Deg F really helps with stability, with the issue such as yours. the double & triple temper also helps. Ask your supplier for the process sequence, as it is important in the manufacturing game. It is also important to be informed of the heat treat process. this where most failures happen. discuss the options with the heat treater. obtain material...

CR100, Although I can't answer your specific question, I'd suggest that you ignore that second set of test data.  You won't get a combination of 310KSI UTS and 12% elongation in any alloy that I know of (including multi-phase or Aermet). Regards, Terry

That material may be usable for your shaft, though lower carbon steels (e.g. 1050) are more common. For a BS equivalent, try C60 according to BS EN 10083.

Published (2009-11-08 23:46:00)
Metengr, in our situation there is dynamic loading, so toughness is very important.  But I was looking for a correlation between toughness and elongation at break. But comparing sample 1 and 2, sample 2 UTS-YS= 7 ksi, while sample 1 UTS-YS=36ksi.  While both samples had identical elongation at break.  Which puzzles me.  I would expect the sample 2 elogation at break to be...

Not on your particular application I've seen MgO wash, Kaolin wash, and graphite wash used for slag and molten metal problems. I've used products fro ZYP for some very high temperature molten refractory slag/glass problems. You might want to them a call. http://www.zypcoatings.com/index.htm

Thermal expansion. Permanent?
Published (2009-11-11 10:25:00)
Thanks for all the comments. The idea was for the clearance to be removed as the machine reached operating temperature.  Hence the .0006 difference in expansion desertfox mentions was (somewhat) planned.  The idea was for the ring to *just* snug up on the shaft when at operating temperature.  This worked fine (the first time!) Unfortunately I expected that the ring would shrink back down...

It was all I wanted to know. Final conclusion is heat treatment at 850?C rises elongation. Duclility is inchanged or lower. YS & UTS are much lower. Thank you very much indeed.

When you heat the ring, you are re-tempering it each time. This would normally cause the ring to shrink, as tempering causes a decrease in the volume of the martensite. But, it can't shrink like it wants to, since it is constrained by the shaft. The stresses imposed by the constraint of the shaft have acted on the ring, causing it to expand. You should also be observing a decrease in ring ...

Lukas, Please excuse me but I am unware the acronym ITN and what means. Stabilization is not a heat treatment typical of this grade as well as ITN suggests. 174PH approximately has AC1 = 630°C (1160F) and AC3= 710°C( 1300F). In order the largest amount of Cu could be dissolved in Austenite, it must be treated at 1040°C (1900F. This heat treatment is called " Condition A " or Annealing (ASTM ...
