ASTM A255 Standard Test Method for Determining the Hardenability of Steel

EUROLAB laboratory provides testing and compliance services within the scope of ASTM A255 standard. This standard covers the definition and definition of test methods for determining the hardenability of steels. The two test methods include the quantitative final quenching, or Jominy Test, and a method for calculating the hardenability of steel from chemical composition based on MA Grossman's original work.

ASTM A255 Standard Test Method for Determining the Hardenability of Steel

The choice of test method to be used to determine the hardenability of a particular steel will be agreed between the supplier and the user. The Certified Material Test Report will specify the method for determining the hardenability.

Hardenability is a measure of the depth at which the steel will harden when quenched from the austenitizing temperature. It is usually measured quantitatively by noting the degree or depth of hardening of a standard size and shape of the test specimen in a standard quenching process. In the final quenching test, the hardening depth is the distance from the quenched end along the specimen, which is associated with a given hardness level.

Values ​​stated in inch-pound units should be considered standard. Values ​​in parentheses are mathematical conversions to non-standard SI units, provided for informational purposes only.

This standard does not purport to address all, if any, safety concerns associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health and environmental practices and to determine the applicability of regulatory restrictions prior to use.
