Material properties after heat treatment for stress analysis
Material properties after heat treatment for stress analysis
(OP)
I am looking for mateterial properties , (i.e. tensile strength, compressive strength .....) for tool steels (i.e h-13, h-11, 420 stainless) after heat treatment to above 50 Rockwell C. Since there are dramatic changes in the material properties and these properties would be needed for me to properly perform CAE stress analysis on my part designs. I know the desied method would be to heat treat a couple of samples of the material and perfom stress tests on them in a lab but I do not have the resources for this. Does anyone know os a general library of materials and the progressive changes of thier properties through heat treatment. Any helpful info or diresction is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Thanks.

Your second option would be to visit a university library and see if they have one or more of the ASM Handbooks that would provide you with material property data.
A third option would be to contact Crucible that supplies tool steels, and see if they have any material property information regarding their alloys.

Elastic Modulus
Poisons Ratio
Shear modulus
Compressive Strength
Tensile strength
Yield strength
some of which are derivalble from others. It would be a shame for me to subscribe to a site that does not have all this info.
Thanks for leads.

Elastic Modulus for steels ~ 30 X 106 psi
Poisson's ratio ~0.3
The other material property data you will either have to pay for or go visit a university library.

As suggested by metengr and maui, there are also resources available on supplier websites. You can google for more of them, and download their .pdf datasheets...
