Abstract
A promising method for improving the strength properties of low-carbon steels is quenching from the intercritical temperature range. This process is quite simply carried out in metallurgical production on the rolling mill stream, as well as in a heat treating shop using separate heating. In this article the specifics of quenching from the intercritical temperature range with the use of electrical heating are considered.
