TITANIUM-STRENGTHENED GRADES

Criteria for evaluation of high-strength, hot-rolled steels; one of most attractive means for their strengthening is addition of small amounts of titanium in combination with proper hot rolling process control; diagram shows that in 0.6% C steel containing 0.23% Ti, continuous cooling process control following hot rolling can produce yield strengths of 105,000 psi; these high-strength steels have excellent forming characteristics; for example, in standard cold bend test flat sample is bent around mandrels of various diameters until cracking is observed at bend.
