Allof these tests were made with tools and material cold. This steel can be satisfactorily hardened in temperaturesranging from 1,650 to 1,950 deg. F., but the preferablerange is considered to lie between 1,750 and 1,800 heating, the steel is quenched in oil and then slightlydrawn. The drawing increases the toughness of the metal
