Weldability and the Effect on Heat-Affected Zone Microstructure of a High Hardenability Boron Steel Compared to SAE 1045 After Shielded Metal Arc Welding
Abstract:One of the steels commonly used in the industry in mechanical devices, tools and structural steels is SAE 1045. A possible replacement for this alloy is SAE 15B30 with similar mechanical properties. To select an alloy, care is needed, for example weldability. Making a comparative study of these alloys, can boron steel replace SAE 1045? Knowing that boron steels have high hardenability but may have an improved weldability due to the low carbon equivalent. Therefore, it is extremely important to know the factors… Show more
