General

FATIGUE-PROOF® is made by various combinations of mechanical working and thermal treatment which can include Niagara LaSalle's "e.t.d."® (elevated temperature drawing) process. This is a high strength steel bar that eliminates heat treating and secondary operations such as cleaning, straightening, secondary machining and inspections. All this, in combination with free machining and high strength, operates to lower end costs. FATIGUE-PROOF® induction hardens satisfactorily, but should be watched for quench cracks. FATIGUE-PROOF® is also comparitor or roto tested.

 

Chemistry


Chemistry
Carbon 0.40/0.48
Manganese 1.35/1.65
Phosphorus 0.040
Sulphur 0.24/0.33
Silicon 0.15/0.30
*AISI 1144M heats to be used for FATIGUE-PROOF® are usually nitrogen treated, and contain nitrogen in quantities normally associated with steel produced by the electdc furnace process.
