A Study on the Fatigue Properties of Boron Steel (AISI 51B20)

보론 첨가강(AISI 51B20재)의 피로특성에 관한 연구

Chrome-molybden steel or chrome steel for machine structural use been shown to excellent hardenability adding boron of a small amount at low carbon steel. In the country boron steel has been used widely high strength volt and wear resistant components of construction equipment. SEM results showed classical fatigue fractures, consistent with surface crack initiation. The speciments were cycled using under load controlled rotary bending fatigue tests. In this study, the fatigue crack initiation as well as the fatigue crack growth behavior and the fracture mechanism were investigated through observations of fracture surface boron steel(AISI 51B20).
