Which of the steel alloys (AISI 8640 vs AISI 1060) has a higher hardenability and why? / Watter van die staalallooie (AISI 8640 vs AISI 1060) het 'n hoër verhardbaarheid en hoekom?

Question

Which of the steel alloys (AISI 8640 vs AISI 1060) has a higher hardenability and why? /  Watter van die staalallooie (AISI 8640 vs AISI 1060) het 'n hoër verhardbaarheid en hoekom?

Answer

AISI 8640: contains 100% martensite (based on carbon composition) over the majority of the specimen length whereas AISI 1060 does not. / 
 AISI 8640: bevat 100% martensiet (gebaseer op koolstofsamestelling) oor die meerderheid van die toetsstuklengte, terwyl AISI 1060 nie.

Answer

AISI 8640: contains over 50% martensite (based on carbon composition) over a large portion of the specimen length whereas AISI 1060 contains less than 50% martensite over the majority of the specimen length / 
 AISI 8640: bevat meer as 50% martensiet (gebaseer op koolstofsamestelling) oor 'n groot gedeelte van die toetsstuklengte, terwyl AISI 1060 minder as 50% martensiet oor die meerderheid van die  toetsstuklengte  bevat.

Answer

AISI 1060: contains over 50% martensite (based on carbon composition) over the majority of the specimen length whereas AISI 8640 contains less than 50% martensite over the majority of the specimen length / 
 AISI 1060: bevat meer as 50% martensiet (gebaseer op koolstofsamestelling) oor die meerderheid van die  toetsstuklengte , terwyl AISI 8640 minder as 50% martensiet oor die meerderheid van die  toetsstuklengte  bevat.

Answer

AISI 1060: has higher hardness values than AISI 8640 / 
 AISI 1060: het hoër hardheidwaardes as AISI 8640
