The reason why the finishing temperature at the time of hot pipe making is higher than the Ar 3 transformation point is to make the rolling structure a grain-sized structure. Further, the reason why the working ratio at the time of cold working is set to 10 to 70% is that if the working ratio is less than 10%, a predetermined dimensional accuracy cannot be obtained.
If it exceeds 70%, cracks due to cold working are concerned. Further, the heat treatment temperature after the cold working is set to 700 to 5
The reason why the temperature is set to 00 ° C. is that if the temperature exceeds 700 ° C., a predetermined strength cannot be obtained, and if the temperature is lower than 500 ° C., the strength becomes too high and the ductility and toughness decrease. Furthermore, the reason why the heating temperature is set to 900 to 1000 ° C. as the induction hardening condition is that if the temperature is lower than 900 ° C., the carbides cannot be sufficiently solid-dissolved due to rapid heating for a short time, so that a predetermined hardening hardness cannot be obtained.
If the temperature exceeds 000 ° C., the strength becomes too high, and the toughness of the quenched portion decreases. The tempering temperature is not particularly limited, but is generally performed at 150 to 200 ° C. Further, it is possible to change the quenching depth by changing the high frequency.
