ABSTRACT:
A drive train gear having a plurality of teeth thereon is formed of an alloy steel having a predominantly homogeneous and substantially complete low temperature bainite microstructure, including less than 10 Vol % austenite. The gear preferably consists essentially of preselected weight percentages of carbon, manganese, silicon, molybdenum, boron and the balance substantially iron. Such a gear has a high tensile strength, a reduced distortion during heat treatment, and a through hardness level of at least Rc56 therethrough.
