Effect of Heat Treatment on Fatigue Strength and Frequency Stability of Tool Steel 6KhS

  • Published:
Metal Science and Heat Treatment Aims and scope

The effect of heat treatment on the fatigue processes developing in tool steel 6KhS loaded by a “soft” scheme of cantilever bending of flat specimens is studied. The fatigue limit and the cyclic endurance are determined. The frequency characteristics and the dynamics of the frequency stability in tests of steel specimens at a load close to the fatigue limit are presented. The fatigue resistance of the steel after low-temperature tempering is shown to be highly scattered. The steel exhibits the highest frequency stability after high-temperature tempering.
