Effect of Tempering Temperature on Wear Rate of Steel 100Cr6

Abstract

AbstractThis research aims to study the effect of quenching by oil with tempering at180°C and 400°C on wear rate of 100Cr6 steel. A pin-on-disc technique was used tomeasure wear rate at different loads and different sliding times with constant slidingspeed(2.199msec)and the hardness of steel dise was 45HRC.The results show that the wear resistance of the specimen quenched by oil andtempered at 400°C was more than the specimen quenched by oil and tempered at180°C.
