Q

Why higher Carbon steel can’t be welded?

A

The heat causes residual stress which will cause cracking. Oxygen-induced cracking. needs pre and post heating/cooling

16
Q

When you heat An Austentic iron above 1300” degrees

A

it changes between BCC to FCC stucure.

17
Q

Austnetic

A

High corrosion resitant. high chromium content

18
Q

Ferritic

A

Steel with high iron. lower corrosion res than other Stainless steel.

19
Q

Causes cracking in the welding process for mild carbon steels

A

Residual Stresses

20
Q

0.5 - 1.00 % C.

A

High cabron contnet. prosisblity of crackign and brittleness. Very hard and Very Strong after heat treatment

21
Q

Fewer alloys than other alloy steels. easily weldable. more corrosion resistant

A

Low Alloy Steel

22
Q

Steels that are well suited for making different tools and tool parts. High Strenght. Wear Strength.

A

Tool Steels

23
Q

two types of magnet

A

Temporary and permanent

24
Q

Spring steel

A

a stainless steel types

25
Q

two types of forging

A

Forging uses a deformation usually a hammer. Hot forging ( is heated at Recrytalization temp) while cold forging is at room temperature. Cold hardenes them and Heat forges.

26
Q

95 % of all metals produced in the world are these metals.

A

Iron and Steel

27
Q

Low iron ore like substance. Contains a percentage of magnetite Firing at high temperatures it oxides the magnetite into Hameitite.

A

Talconite. Talconite pellets

28
Q

Iron produced from a process getting rid the oxygen and oxides on the iron.

A

Direct Reduced Iron.
