Primary ExaminerL. Dewayne Rutledge Assistant Examiner-Arthur J. Steiner ABSTRACT A hot work implement, such as a press forging die and analogous products, which has excellent secondary hardening and temper resistance, toughness, wear resistance, and machinability properties as contrasted to products currently on the market, said implement being economically competitive with existing implements and having the following nominal composition by weight per cent in its broadest embodiment:

sistance and improved machinability as contrasted to press dies currently available.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION There is a trend in the drop forging industry to change over from drop hammers to forging presses. The reasons for this trend include obtaining improved yields, faster operation at lower cost, and use of a lower labor grade. Other factors such as the environmental consideration of reduced noise levels favor the increased use of press forging.
As those skilled in the art appreciate a workpiece which is press forged is in contact with the die for a longer period of time on the average than a piece which is drop hammer forged. Because of this longer dwell period of contact the dies reach higher temperatures than drop forge dies and accordingly good secondary hardening and temper resistance, that is, resistance to softening at elevated working temperatures, is necessary.
Further more hot metal flow over the die surfaces is present in press forging, due to the long squeeze effect, as contrasted to drop forging. Accordingly good wear resistance at elevated temperatures is essential.
Good impact toughness is essential since press forging dies are subjected to shock loading. If a press die is deficient in impact toughness heat checking readily leads to cracking; when cracking occurs the useful life of the die is ended, since dies which have heat checked and then cracked cannot be redressed or polished.
Further, since a press die is nearly always resunk one or more times during its useful life it is important that it possess good hardenability so the number of pieces that can be expected from the last sinking is as great as from the first.
Since a press die block like any other die block must be machined to form the desired cavity, it is also important that the material be as machinable as possible. This is a difficult requirement to achieve when taken with the foregoing requirements, since attainment of good hot hardness and wear resistance properties aresomewhat incompatible with good machinability.
And finally, the press die must be economically competitive since alternative products are available to the trade.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The invention is a press forging die block which, when subjected to tempering in the range of about 900F to ll50F following austenitizing at about l800F, has excellent secondary hardening and temper resistance, good hot hardness and therefore good wear resistance at the elevated temperatures encountered in press die forging, excellent impact toughness and resistance to heat checking and consequent cracking, and improved machinability as contrasted to existing products, all of said characteristics being achieved at a lower cost than said existing products. The invention further includes a steel especially adapted for use as a press forging die and having the following broad, preferred and specific ranges:
Ni Cr Mo V Al DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS Several features of the invention are illustrated in the accompanying drawing wherein:
FIG. 1 is a comparison of tempering response curves for a standard steel and the steel of this invention; and
FIG. 2 is a comparison of the influence of tempering temperature on hardness and toughness of a standard steel and the steel of this invention.
DESCRIPTION OF SPECIFIC EMBODIMENT Carbon is necessary to provide the requisite hardness and contributes to the secondary hardening effect and wear resistance. Carbon makes possible the formation of carbides, such as Mo C and V C which produce the secondary hardening effect, and should be balanced with the secondary hardening elements Cr, Mo and V. If substantially more than .35 C is present, the product may be too brittle and if substantially less than .15 C is present the requisite secondary hardening effect may not be achieved. If melting conditions permit the range of .17 to .22 C ensures the presence ofa near optimum amount of C when the other secondary hardening elements are present in the specified ranges.
' Mn contributes to hardenability and controls sulphides. Manganese sulphide is far preferable to ferrous sulphide in a forging steel since manganese sulphide does not cause hot shortness as does ferrous sulphide. If substantially more than the specified amount of Mn is present a refractory reaction during the steelmaking process may occur with a consequent adverse effect on cleanliness. If substantially less than the specified amount of Mn is present surface problems, such as cracking, may be encountered.
Si is important because of its contribution to the steelmaking process including, particularly, serving as a blocking agent.
Ni is essential because of its contribution to'toughness, in particular, and hardenability. It also helps resist heat checking. If substantially more Ni is present than specified the die may be flake sensitive and tend to retain austenite; further, Ni is a relatively expensive element. If substantially less Ni is present than that specitied the requisite toughness may not be achieved. Ni in an amount near the upper end of the range should be present for optimum results.
Cr contributes to secondary hardening and temper resistance, toughness and hardenability. It has been ob served in experiments that steels of the invention containing Cr are characterized by a low C martensitic structure when air cooled, whereas similar steels which lack Cr are characterized by the less desirable low carbon bainitic structure. Substantially greater amounts of C Mn Standard .21 .67
Steel New Steel the broad range, and most preferably near the midpoint of the range.
M is essential because of its contribution to carbide formation and hence hardness throughout a wide temperature range. It is important that a press die or similar product not soften, wear or erode in use, and Mo contributes to these desirable properties. Mo also has a beneficial effect on hardenability. If more than the indicated amount of M0 is present the C would have to be increased and a tendency toward brittleness might develop. If less than the specified amount is present the desired effects'may not be achieved. It is preferred that Mo be present in the lower end of its broad range, and most preferably in an amount of from 1.0 to 1.2%.
V is essential because it provides increased temper resistance and secondary hardening since it is a potent carbide former. Experiments have also indicated that V provides excellent hot hardness properties which indicates greater wear resistance in service as contrasted to similar steels which do not contain V. Although a lower limit of 0.30% has been specified for both the preferred and specific ranges, the improved temper resistance 4 Two -lb. vacuum induction melted ingots were melted to the following compositions:
Si P S Cr M0 V Ni Al .35 .008 .017 nil 3.35 .08 3.15 .022
The ingots were forged to 2- inch square bars and then further reduced to 1% inch square bars with a soaking temperature of 2250F before forging. Hardness tests were then conducted on specimens of each steel after aging for 4 hours at various temperatures in the range of 700F to 1300F, and the results plotted in FIG. 1. By reference to FIG. 1 it will be noted that although the new steel had a slightly less pronounced secondary hardening peak response characteristic than the standard steel, it has substantially improved temper resistance. In this connection it should be noted that the slight decrease in peak hardness of the new steel is more than compensated by the improved temper resistance and toughness properties, the latter of which will be discussed hereafter. Of special note in FIG. 1 is the sustantially improved temper resistance which was achieved with the approximately 6-fold increase in V.
The improved hot hardness properties of the invention are apparent'from Table I, which sets out tests on the aforesaid 1% square bars after austenitizing, air cooling, and aging at about 975F for 4 hours to a common hardness level of about R 46 i 1.
TABLE I BRINELL HOT HARDNESS For 1 100 F test. the spccimcnts from the 900 F test were rc-uscd.
Of particular interest are the BHN values after 100 hours. The 900F hardness values show no significant difference which is to be expected, since this test temperature is below the aging temperature used for these steels. The hardness values of the 1000F and ll0OF test temperatures clearly indicate that the new die steel has superior hot hardness characteristics as compared to the standard steel, thus indicating that the new steel will have greater wear resistance in service.
The outstanding impact toughness of the invention can be appreciated from Table II, which shows Charpy V-notch impact toughness properties determined at F, 212F, and 350F for various tempering tempera-' tures, and FIG. 2.

Note: CVN values are the average of two tests.
The heat treatment for the standard steel specimens 20 After forging to 9% inch round bars and suitable heat and the new steel specimens was identical with the exception that the standard steel was austenitized at its recommended temperature of 1850F while the new steel was austenitized at 1800F, this latter temperature having been established as sufficient to ensure complete solution of all alloy carbides.
From Table II it will be noted that the toughness of the new steel was significantly greater than the toughness of the standard steel at all tempering temperatures and all test temperatures. 1
From FIG. 2, which is based on the data of Table II, the superior impact toughness of the new steel is charted. Particular attention is directed to the 1100F tempering temperature since the hardness of the standard steel and new steel specimens was approximately equal at that temperature. The superiority of the new steel is clearly apparent at this point wherein all variables are equal within the limits of experimental error.
Further experimentation has indicated that an aluminum-killed fine grain melting practice is a significant factor in the improved impact toughness of the new steel as compared to the standard steel, both as a function of tempering temperature and austenitizing temperature.
.lominy tests have indicated that the new steel has equal, if not better, hardenability than the standard steel. A comparison of micro-structures of the two types of steels revealed that the new steel has a low carbon martinsitic structure, at least when air cooled in /2 inch thick sections, whereas the standard steel exhibits a less desirable, low carbon bainitic structure. Good hardenability is desired in this product since the number of pieces made from the second and each further sinking should be as great, if possible, as the number of pieces obtained from the initial sinking.
In a further test, a 65-ton heat of steel was melted and the following composition obtained:
treatment which included austenitizing at 1800F for 6-8 hours, air cooling to below 500F, tempering in the range of 1125" F to 1150F, and air cooling, the steel round was split into a pair of upsetter dies which were machined and polished for use in press forging automotive parts. The new steel, which was machined and pol- V ished under the same conditions as the standard steel, machined and polished better than the standard steel. A first set of dies was installed in place ofa set ofdies 30 made from the above mentioned standard steel, and
run under the same conditions to produce the same automotive part as had the standard steel. Said first set of dies yielded over greater production during its useful life than the average production of the standard 5 steel. A second set of dies yielded over greater production than the average production of the standard steel and, when examined, appeared to be in as good a condition as when installed.
In a further test a series of 0.250-inch diameter bar specimens were made up from the above mentioned 65 ton heat, and a series of tensile tests at varying temperatures were carried out. The test results were then compared against average tensile test results derived from a comparative steel having the following nominal compowhich had been tempered to a hardness level in the range of BHN 375-341. Said comparative steel is another steel which has been used for similar applications, and specifically press forging dies. The properties are summarized in the following Table 111. It will be noted that excellent transverse ductility was obtained in addition to good hot strength.
