    T1075/T1095 Questions

    Motion passed . . . I'm going to build a testing device and will post data with picts when finished. Thanks again for everyone's help!

    T1075/T1095 Questions

    Any chance someone has the T1075 data/curve from the ASM Handbook Vol. #1 that they could email? Also, I've revised the webpage significantly. Please take a look and advise on other potential metals/alloys that might work. Of course, ALL help is greatly appreciated...

    T1075/T1095 Questions

    Any idea where I can find the S-N curve for T1075 steel? None of the steel companies that I've called have a clue. Thanks.

    T1075/T1095 Questions

    Questions: Is there a known ratio of bend/thickness for T1075 that is acceptable? A ratio that will allow the spring to flex with a reasonable number of cycles (2000 min) and no premature fatigue failure? If those number of cycles simply cannot be achieved with T1075, is there another...

    T1075/T1095 Questions

    WOW, excellent response Israelkk! I impressed with your evaluation. I hadn't thought of the beam, in essence, decreasing in length due to it's contact with the radius - makes perfect sense. Also, your calculations are right on with mine (F = 3DEI/L3rd) as well as with the empirical date...

    T1075/T1095 Questions

    Thanks for responding DF. I've revised my webpage with more detail regarding the application. Please visit: www.realestateinlasvegas.com/T1075.htm for more info. In answer to your questions: 1) Yes, the spring is attached to the arch on the left side of the image and is bent over the arch to...

    T1075/T1095 Questions

    THANKS for your feedback! Having a VERY tough time finding answers. Not familiar with an "post-processing" other than the obvious annealing/rolling/tempering/quenching/carbonizing. Are you talking about the addition of other metals to create an alloy? I've contacted about 10 steel...

    T1075/T1095 Questions

    I have an application where a piece of high carbon T1075 and/or T1095 spring steel is bent over a portion of a 10 inch radius to achieve a cantilever spring. See attached link below. Question 1: I can use either a 1.5 inch wide 0.125 or an 11 inch wide 0.062 to achieve the same spring rate...

    High Carbon Life Cycles

    I have an application where a piece of high carbon T1075 spring steel is bent over a portion of a 10 inch radius to achieve a cantilever spring. Question 1: I can use either a 1.5 inch wide 0.125 or an 11 inch wide 0.062 to achieve the same spring rate. Which one will have the longer life...

    Need Formula for Determining Max Bend of Spring Steel

    Thank you for your time. I need to know the basics of C1075-C1095 spring steel when used as a cantilever spring. Approximate dimensions are 18" long x 14" wide and .062-.125 thick. Specific questions: What is the maximum bend before the spring will take a permanent set? I've been using 10...
