Used to maximize advantage for parts where considerable machining is required, such as bushings, inserts, couplings, and hydraulic hose fittings. With good ductility, these grades are suitable for parts involving bending, crimping, or riveting.
The following are average values for 1” round and may be considered as representative:
| Tensile Streng |
78000 |
| Yield Strength |
70000 |
| Elongation |
15% |
| Reduction of Area |
50% |
| Brinell Hardness |
163 |
Average surface cutting speeds and machinability ratings based on 1212 as 100% are as follows: 12L14- 325 feet per minute – 193%
Due to high sulfur content, these grades are not considered as weldable.
Although grades will respond to conventional treatments, the are not considered casehardening steels. Better results can be obtained from 1018.
