Standards
Engineering Standard Number
Name HARDENED AND TEMPERED

MATERIALS SPECIFICATION 70205


Identifier
(HARDENED,THROUGH)

1. Scope
This specification provides requirements for heat resistant steel which has been hardened and
tempered.

2. Applicable Documents
Applicable documents listed below may be obtained from the respective organizations listed in
CES 10054, Standards Organizations Addresses.

a. ASTM A 370, Mechanical Testing of Steel Parts


b. ASTM E 18, Rockwell Hardness and Rockwell Superficial Hardness of Metallic Materials
c. ASTM E 384, Microindentation Hardness of Materials
d. ASTM E 1077, Estimating the Depth of Decarburization of Steel Specimens
e. CES 10054, Standards Organizations Addresses
f. CES 10056, Glossary
g. CES 31080, Steel, Low Alloy
h. SAE J123, Surface Discontinuities on Bolts, Screws, and Studs in Fatigue Applications

3. Definitions
There are no unique definitions in this standard. Terms used in this standard that have a general
definition for usage in Cummins Engineering Standards are defined in CES 10056, Glossary.

4. Specifications
4.1. Significance and Use

4.1.1. This specification provides requirements for heat resistant steel which has been
hardened and tempered. Material processed to this specification is most frequently used in fastener
applications. It is suitable for use at temperatures up to 538 degrees Celsius (1000 degrees
Fahrenheit)

4.1.2. The required thermal treatment is to normalize in a neutral atmosphere at 940-970


degrees Celsius (1725-1775 degrees Fahrenheit) for 1.5 hours, cool to room temperature in still air
or furnace cooling chamber, temper at 595 degrees Celsius (1100 degrees Fahrenheit) minimum
for a minimum of six hours and air cool to room temperature.

4.2. Chemical Composition

Chemical composition shall meet the requirements of the appropriate material described in
CES 31080.

4.3. Physical Properties

There are no physical property requirements for this standard.

4.4. Mechanical Properties

4.4.1. Hardness shall be 30-38 HRC when measured in accordance with ASTM E 18.

4.4.2. Tensile properties for bars machined from fasteners shall be tested in accordance with
ASTM A 370.

4.4.2.1. Tensile strength shall be 123000 pounds per square inch (848 megapascals)
minimum.

4.4.2.2. Tensile yield strength at 0.2% offset shall be 101000 pounds per square inch (696
megapascals) minimum.

4.4.2.3. Elongation in two inches shall be 14 percent minimum.

4.4.2.4. Reduction of area shall be 40 percent minimum.

4.5. Structure

4.5.1. Matrix microstructure shall be examined at a magnification not lower than 500x when
etched with two percent nital.

4.5.1.1. Microstructure shall consist of a normalized and tempered structure with fine
uniformly dispersed carbide. Ferrite may be in a typical Widmanstatten pattern or uniformly
dispersed. Small regions of tempered martensite shall be noted but are not cause for rejection.

4.5.1.2. Material shall be free of surface oxide and oxide penetration.

4.5.2. Decarburization shall be evaluated in accordance with ASTM E 1077.

4.5.2.1. Complete decarburization is not permitted.

maximum. The minimum acceptable hardness at 0.002 inches shall be 304 HK500 (29HRC) or
equivalent when measure in accordance with ASTM E 384.
