COMPARISON BETWEEN THE CHARACTERISTICS OF RAILS MADE OF OXYGEN CONVERTER STEEL AND THOSE MADE OF OPEN HEARTH STEEL

SRAVNITEL'NYE ISSLEDOVANIJA KAVESTVA REL'SOV IZ KISLORODNO-KONVERTERNOJ I MARTENOVSKOJ STALEJ

Study of steel produced by 130 tonne oxygen converters. A study was made of hot rolled rails, quenched in oil or heated along their surface only by a high frequency current. The results illustrate that these rails have the same characteristics as those made of open hearth steel as far as yield strength and fatigue resistance are concerned.
