What is Hot-Wrought ??
What is Hot-Wrought ??
(OP)
I know this is a pretty stupid question...but i couldn't find a definition on the internet or in any of my books...what exactly is meant by 'Hot-Wrought'?
I want to use a material A576 Grade 1045 Hot Rolled for an 8" diameter round I need for a wheel.
But in the selection guide i am using, it list ASTM A576 - Steel Bars, Carbon, Hot-Wrought, Special Quality. - then it list properties for either normalized, annealed or as-rolled.
Help !! Thanks !!

"Plastic deformation at temperatures sufficiently high for recovery and recrystallization to counteract strain hardening is termed hot working".
After hot working, the metal shape can be either annealed or normalized or even quenched and tempered, which can require reheating to a specific temperature, and cooled under controlled conditions.
Hot rolled is a final product form where after hot working, the product is cooled in air.
