Hardness testing of 0.9% plain carbon steel
(OP)
What is the vickers hardness number for plain carbon steel that is heat treated to the following: (1) quenching (2) normalizing (3) tempering (4)annealing





RE: Hardness testing of 0.9% plain carbon steel
As Quenched?
Normalized?
Tempered?
or
Annealed?
Each of these conditions is different and you would NEVER do them in the order given in your post.
And this sounds surprisingly like a homework question to me.
