Carbon Steel ASTM A515 Grade 55 Applications | a515 grade 55 steel is typically used for moderate strength structural applications such as cold formed fasteners and bolts. It is often used in the case hardened condition |
Carbon Steel ASTM A515 Grade 55 Machinability | Machinability of a515 grade 55 steel is quite good, rating a 70% against the standard 1112 steel of 100% machinability. |
Carbon Steel ASTM A515 Grade 55 Forming | a515 grade 55 steel has good ductility and is readily formed by conventional means. |
Carbon Steel ASTM A515 Grade 55 Welding | Weldable by all standard methods. However for heavy sections the use of pre-heat and post- heat is advised. |
Carbon Steel ASTM A515 Grade 55 Heat Treatment | 1022 may be hardened by heating to 1500 - 1600 F and water quenching. The product should then be tempered. However for a low carbon steel such as this the improvement in strength from heat treat, quench and temper often are not cost effective in terms of the heat treating cost. |
Carbon Steel ASTM A515 Grade 55 Forging | Forge at 2350 to 1800 F. |
Carbon Steel ASTM A515 Grade 55 Hot Working | Hot work at 900 to 200 F. |
Carbon Steel ASTM A515 Grade 55 Cold Working | Cold working by conventional methods is readily accomplished. Following severe cold working an anneal may be required. |
Carbon Steel ASTM A515 Grade 55 Annealing | A full anneal is done at 1700 F with slow furnace cooling. A stress relief anneal may be done at 1000 F. |
Carbon Steel ASTM A515 Grade 55 Aging | Not applicable. |
Carbon Steel ASTM A515 Grade 55 Tempering | Temper, after heat treat and quench, at 600 to 1100 F depending upon strength level wanted. |
Carbon Steel ASTM A515 Grade 55 Hardening | Hardens from cold work or by heat treat, quench and temper. |
