Hardening, Tempering and Heat Treatment In this Valuable book Tubal Cain takes the reader beyond the superficial or the simply practical with explanations of the composition of steel, its additives, and the effects of different temperatures on its constituents. With a grasp of what changes are actually taking place in the metal the care needed in following the practical processes described becomes under- standable and will lead to better and more consistent results. Flame, salt bath and furnace heating are detailed, with information on accurate measurement or recognition of temperature levels. For the average small workshop operative or model engineer the discourses on tool material, hardening and tempering will be of most use, and in this connection this book replaces the earlier “Hardening and Tempering Engineers’ Tools”, providing a broader-based, more detailed and up to date examination of the subject. t ISBN O-g5242-837-5 808521428 | HARDENING, TEMPERING AND HEAT TREATMENT for model engineers Tubal Cain ARGUS BOOKS i Contents honor? 2 herr 2 Sharer e hares Chapter? ier at reer acest * Chapter Theesncemantt ree e Chapter Hae Crecente = rapa 10 1 eh tt 188 aay 2 a opens? ws . opens ne omens 1 CHAPTER 1 Iron & Steel fy te Sth ogy son be SS Sere 3 ee caeiae tes Seow wnt san te a Serio met emt cry bow enero” ee Sometwion Best wae Se Spy ar sor ‘Sil accra yaa Baie cd sesh st a en Spf cuteness AGRAPHITE ee mae isomerate Beceem £ 23 ie i. ic te ae Beqesacsa ‘Souter [appa at kon wie aye ar torpor fase Sens ind gt we ae ee ecreadasoes emant cen aoe a Benes ‘Unauewe microcap tha mst by! ‘Sin Sms we on ‘Sloppy eo iano he To ste SE ye cocky ees ‘Giey sietng te nei comers ‘Stent ben rade ne ha ‘sito ai causes swe 2 eth a tad ‘rT cot tre soit be foe, ‘we. ot for voy lege coc seal ‘Soi oat ‘reactor ty sepa moan en wt tearm ied onoatra Sone aera ag ‘ie ing cil won) 03 goat sre ht, tte, mie moa S828 wrod og EFFECT OF CARBON N-CARBON TRANSFOR- ion aver, cae. ont wet ‘Soeauie tet oyeing ‘Slew shoul on Seren coy orien ts cob seo Sine Man popartan Peon ‘tc, foe, he com.
