Case Hardening Steels
Note : This is just a summary : please see the original texts
These comments apply to all 3 parts
Mechanical characteristics : indicated values apply to thicknesses „ 0,3 mm and < 3 mm ; for other thicknesses, the mechanical characteristics should be agreed at the time of inquiry and order.
Surface finish : cold rolled narrow steel strip should be bright as achieved by rolling and annealing in a controlled atmosphere. The surface finishes of quenched and tempered cold rolled strip may be different and should be agreed at the time of inquiry and order.
