ABSTRACT:
An engine cylinder head can be induction hardened in surface areas contacted by the heads of fastener bolts that are use to fasten the cylinder head to the cylinder block. The hardened surface areas, surrounding the bolt holes, are resistant to fatigue cracking that can otherwise result from thermal and mechanical stresses imposed by the fastener bolt head surfaces.
