Bainitic steel grade for solid wheels: metallurgical, mechanical, and in-service testing

Last updated on 05 September 2014 3:41
Bainitic steel grades generally have superior rolling contact and thermal fatigue resistances, but poorer wear characteristics when compared with ‘conventional’ pearlitic steel wheels. To improve the wear characteristics, the manufacturing process of bainitic materials needs to be carefully controlled. In this article, the manufacturing process of the ‘MICRALOS’...
