ROUND-PROFILED ROLLED IRON FROM MICROALLOYED HIGH-PLASTICITY STEEL FOR COLD DIE FORGING OF HIGH-STRENGTH FASTENING MEMBERS

摘要

FIELD: ferrous metallurgy.;SUBSTANCE: invention provides round-profiled iron smelted from alloyed steel composed of, wt %: carbon 0.06-0.11, manganese 0.30-0.9, silicon 0.001-0.15, boron 0.0005-0.0050, vanadium 0.005-0.08, aluminum 0.02-0.06, titanium 0.01-0.04, sulfur 0.005-0.020, nitrogen 0.005-0.015, calcium 0.001-0.010, iron and unavoidable impurities - the balance. When following relationships are fulfilled: Ti/48+Al/27-N/14 ≥ 0.6 x 10^-3; Mn+5.0C ≥ 0.80; Ca/S ≥ 0.065, rolled iron has following characteristics: maximum degree of pollution with nonmetal inclusions, in particular sulfides, oxides, silicates, and nitrides, does not exceed 3 points for each type of inclusions; longitudinally uniform spheroidized structure composed of at least 60% grainy perlite; effective grain size 5-10 points; diameter 10-16 mm; carbon-free layer not exceeding 1.0% of diameter; cold setting value at least 1/3 height; throughout hardenability in circles up to 16 mm in diameter; point of maximum load not higher than 500 MPa; relative elongation at least 22%; and relative contraction at least 70%.;EFFECT: ensured optimal conditions for cold die forging of high-strength geometrically complex fastening members and simultaneously improved steel hardenability characteristics.
