ABSTRACT:
A billet of steel has a composition comprising small amounts of hardenability agents. The billet is hot rolled into a continuous bar, in two hot rolling stages with an intervening cooling step employing a turbulent cooling liquid. After the second hot rolling stage, the bar is gathered into a succession of closely overlaying loops and moved along a roller conveyor where the overlapping loops are cooled by air blowers, after which the bar is coiled. The resulting hot rolled bar has a microstincture consisting essentially of bainite in fine-sized packets reflecting an average austenitic grain size, before the gathering and cooling steps, of 8-11 ASTM. A threaded fastener in its final form can be produced from the hot rolled bar by a cold deforming operation without a heat treating operation before or after cold deforming. The threaded fastener is undistorted and contains residual compressive stresses.
