Application:Hot forged and cold worked carbon steel and alloy steel rods
ASTM A29/A29M 1071 Material Mechanical Properties
Heat treatment is an important step that determines the mechanical properties of ASTM A29/A29M 1071 steel. Heat treatment involves heating the steel to a specific temperature and then rapidly cooling it, usually with air or oil. The temperature and rate of cooling must be closely monitored and controlled to ensure the desired mechanical properties are obtained. For example, if the steel is cooled too quickly, it will be brittle and prone to cracking or breaking. On the other hand, if it is cooled too slowly, the steel will be weak and easily deformed.
The mechanical properties of the ASTM A29/A29M 1071 steel are as follows:
| YieldRp0.2 | ≤ 941 (MPa) |
| TeileRm | ≤ 962 (MPa) |
| ImpactKV/Ku | 31(J) |
| ElongationA | 42% |
| Reduction in cross section on fractureZ | 12% |
