: hello Gordon
: would you please tell me how much ck60 and ck45 resist the force that we enforce it? I mean that if we hang something on it how much force (newton) can it tolerate?
: after all are ck60 and ck45 resistant to force? or can we enforce lots of force to them and hang heavy things on them? if not what would you suggest?
: thanks
The tensile strength of these steels will depend very much on the condition of section size, heat treatment or cold working. I guess the typical tensile strength for normalised CK45 and CK60 would be around 600 and 750 MPa (N/mm2) respectively or probably more important the yield stress which would be roughly half these values. Hardened and tempered conditions will provide higher strengths, but remember the higher the strength the lower the ductility and impact strength.
Regards Gordon
