 INTRODUCTION TO
JOMINY CORRELATION
WITH ROUND BARS

The following correlation of Jominy values with quenching severity and

surface to center hardnesses obtainable in round bars is based on
calculated and practical experience data.

Since practical heat treatment results are subject to several variables that
are always difficult to determine, i.e., surface condition of piece being
quenched, furnace atmosphere, and quenching severity of the coolant, the
metallurgist or heat treater may find some differences in applying this
correlation to his particular heat treatment setup.

However, as experience is gained by their use, it is believed that these

charts will be found helpful as a guide to the selection of steel of proper
hardenability based on Jominy end quench results. Timken Company
hardenability data supplied upon request with each heat of steel can be
used to advantage in this respect.

 EXPLANATION OF
COMBINED HARDENABILITY CHARTS
The following charts present hardenability data for thirteen popular
steels. They may be used to determine the approximate mid-radius
hardness which is developed, in various sized rounds up to 9" in
diameter using a good oil quench (.4-.5 Hv), or rounds up to 15" in
diameter when air cooling. The effect of a subsequent 1000°F 2 hour
temper is also illustrated.

The relationship between hardness and section size was determined

using data from the Jominy end quench test, and air hardenability test,
and controlled cooling tests. It must be remembered that the results
for a particular steel type are based on one chemical analysis and one
austenitizing temperature. Variations of these will affect hardenability,
as shown by the Jominy hardenability bands (shaded area).
Therefore, the charts should be used to determine estimated, rather
than exact, hardness values.

USE OF CHARTS
1. Select steel type.

2. Find desired diameter for the quenching medium employed.

3. Read the approximate as-quenched or tempered hardness using

the appropriate curve; read hardness range using hardenability
band.

For example, a 2-inch round made of 1045 type steel will

develop the following mid-radius hardnesses:

Mild Water Oil .4-.5 Hv Air

As-Quenched 28(25/32) Rc 25(22/29) Rc 91Rb

Tempered
1000 °F-2 Hours 22.5 Rc 21 Rc 91Rb

CONDITIONS WHICH AFFECT

FATIGUE STRENGTH
The fatigue strength of a material depends on many factors of which
the following are considered among the most important: (1) the
strength of the material and the magnitude of the stress being applied
to the material in its application, (2) the surface integrity of the material
including its finish and method of manufacture, magnitude of residual
stress present, and the presence of decarburization, (3) the environ-
ment in which the material is exposed in service.

It must be noted that fatigue data such as that represented by the

curves shown above are averages obtained from laboratory tests
which approach ideal conditions and should not be considered more
than a guide.

PARAMETER, P
TO USE THE CHART
In the upper grid, select a point (time and temperature) for which the case
depth results are known. Go vertically down from that point to the known case
depth and plot the point. Pass a line through this point parallel to the dashed
line shown. Projecting a line vertically upward from any point on this line into
the grid will give the combinations of time and temperature that will result in
the same depth of case. For instance, a vertical line drawn upward from the
dashed line at 100 thousandths indicates that a 0.100 in. case will be produced
by 6 hr. at 1900˚F, 11 hr. at 1800˚F, or 22 hr. at 1700˚F. Shop experience of the
Cook Heat Treat Co., Houston, is depicted by this line and its related points.

 LENGTH TOLERANCES
All Conditions - Seamless Steel Tubing

Random Lengths
Tubing shipped on random length orders will range from 5 feet to 24
feet long unless otherwise specified.

Multiple Lengths
For tubing ordered in multiple lengths, it is standard practice for the
customer to make his own allowance for loss of steel due to his cutting
operations. These allowances will vary from one customer to another
due to their cutting practices and the amount of facing required on the
ends of the part. Therefore, tubing will be furnished to the multiple
length as specified by the customer.

 STRAIGHTNESS TOLERANCES
All Conditions - Seamless Steel Tubing

Straightness tolerances (T) should not exceed those shown in the

tables below. The tolerance (T) for any 3-foot length is measured as
shown in Figure 1. The total tolerance, the maximum curvature in the
total length, is measured as shown in Figure 2. The table applies to
lengths not exceeding 22 feet.

The tolerances shown apply to conventional steel grades of as rolled,

annealed, and heat treated tubing up to 302 Brinell maximum or micro
alloy grades with a hardness of 229 Brinell or below. Heat treated
tubes with a Brinell hardness of 302 maximum up to 401 maximum or
micro alloy grades with a Brinell hardness exceeding 229 will have
tolerance (T) twice the values shown in the table. Tubes with lighter
walls, or with hardness exceeding 401 Brinell maximum, or weighing
greater than 140 pounds per foot, require agreement on tolerances at
time of order.

 GLOSSARY OF
METALLURGICAL TERMS

Alloying Elements
ALUMINUM - Al
is used to deoxidize steel and control grain size. Grain size control
is effected by forming a fine dispersion with nitrogen and oxygen
which restricts austenite grain growth. Aluminum is also an extremely
effective nitride former in nitriding steels.
BORON - B
is usually added between .0005-.003% to significantly increase the
hardenability, especially for low carbon alloys. It does not affect the
strength of ferrite, therefore not sacrificing ductility, formability or
machinability in the annealed state.
CALCIUM - Ca
is used in certain steels to control the shape, size and distribution of
oxide and/or sulfide inclusions. Benefits may include improved
ductility, impact strength and machinability.
CARBON - C
is the most important alloying element which is essential for the
formation of cementite, pearlite, spheriodite, bainite, and iron-carbon
martensite. Compared to steels with similar microstructures, strength,
hardness, hardenability, and ductile-to-brittle transition temperature
are increased with increasing carbon content up to approximately
.60%. Toughness and ductility of pearlitic steels are decreased with
increasing carbon content.
CHROMIUM - Cr
is used in low alloy steels to increase 1) resistance to corrosion and
oxidation, 2) high temperature strength, 3) hardenability, and 4)
abrasion resistance in high carbon alloys. Straight chromium steels
are susceptible to temper embrittlement and can be brittle.
COPPER - Cu
is detrimental to hot workability and subsequent surface quality. It is
used in certain steels to improve resistance to atmospheric corrosion.
LEAD - Pb
improves machinability. It does not dissolve in steel but stays as
globules. Environmental concerns are resulting in a decreased
usage of lead in the steel industry.
MANGANESE - Mn
is important because it deoxidizes the melt and facilitates hot working
of the steel by reducing the susceptibility to hot shortness. It combines
with sulfur to form MnS stringers which increases machinability.
Manganese contributes to the effectiveness of normalizing for
strengthening, to the formation of fine pearlite, and lowers the Ms
temperature, therefore increasing the probability of retained austenite.

99
 GLOSSARY - continued

MOLYBDENUM - Mo
increases hardenability of steels and helps maintain a specified
hardenability. It increases high temperature tensile and creep
strengths. Molybdenum hardened steels require higher tempering
temperatures for softening purposes.
NICKEL - Ni
is used in low alloy steels to reduce the sensitivity of the steel to
variations in heat treatment and distortion and cracking on quenching.
It also improves low temperature toughness and hardenability.
NIOBIUM - Nb (Columbium - Cb)
lowers transition temperature and raises the strength of low carbon
steel. Niobium increases strength at elevated temperatures, results
in finer grain size and forms stable carbides, lowering the hardenability
of the steel.
NITROGEN - N
increases the strength, hardness and machinability of steel, but it
decreases the ductility and toughness. In aluminum killed steels,
nitrogen combines with the aluminum to provide grain size control,
thereby improving both toughness and strength. Nitrogen can reduce
the effect of boron on the hardenability of steels.
PHOSPHORUS - P
is generally restricted to below 0.04 weight percent to minimize its
detrimental effect on ductility and toughness. Certain steels may
contain higher levels to enhance machinability, strength and/or
atmospheric corrosion resistance.
SILICON - Si
is one of the principal deoxidizers with the amount used dependent
on the deoxidization practice. It slightly increases the strength of
ferrite without a serious loss of ductility. In larger quantities, it aids
the resistance to scaling up to 500°F in air and decreases magnetic
hysteresis loss.
SULFUR - S
is detrimental to transverse strength and impact resistance. It affects
longitudinal properties to a lesser degree. Existing primarily in the
form of manganese sulfide stringers, sulfur is typically added to
improve machinability.
TITANIUM - Ti
is added to boron steels because it combines with oxygen and
nitrogen, thus increasing the effectiveness of boron. Titanium, as
titanium nitride, also provides grain size control at elevated
temperatures in microalloy steels. In excess, titanium is detrimental
to machinability and internal cleanness.

100
 GLOSSARY - continued

TELLURIUM - Te
is added to steel to modify sulfide type inclusion size, morphology
and distribution. The resulting sulfide type inclusions are finer and
remain ellipsoidal in shape following hot working, thereby improving
transverse properties.
VANADIUM - V
inhibits grain growth during heat treating while improving strength
and toughness of hardened and tempered steels. Additions up to
.05% increase hardenability whereas larger amounts tend to reduce
hardenability because of carbide formation. Vanadium is also utilized
in ferrite/pearlite microalloy steels to increase hardness through
carbonitride precipitation strengthening of the matrix.

Standard Mill Terminology

ANNEALING
A treatment consisting of heating uniformly to a temperature, within
or above the critical range, and cooling at a controlled rate to a
temperature under the critical range. This treatment is used to
produce a definite microstructure, usually one designed for best
machinability, and/or to remove stresses, induce softness, and alter
ductility, toughness or other mechanical properties.
BILLET
A solid semifinished round or square that has been hot worked
usually smaller than a bloom. Also a general term for wrought starting
stock for forgings or extrusions.
BLOOM
A semifinished hot rolled rectangular product. The width of the bloom
is no more than twice the thickness and the cross-sectional area is
usually not less that 36 square inches.
CAPPED STEEL
A type of steel similar to rimmed steel, usually cast in a bottle top
ingot, in which the application of a mechanical or chemical cap
renders the rimming action incomplete by causing the top metal to
solidify.
DI (Ideal Diameter)
The diameter of a round steel bar that will harden at the center to a
given percent of martensite when subjected to an ideal quench (i.e.,
Grossman quench severity H=infinity)
ELONGATION
In tensile testing, the increase in gage length, measured after the
fracture of a specimen within the gage length, usually expressed as
a percentage of the original gage length.

101
 GLOSSARY - continued

END-QUENCH HARDENABILITY TEST (Jominy Test)

A laboratory procedure for determining the hardenability of a steel or
other ferrous alloy. Hardenability is determined by heating a stan-
dard specimen above the upper critical temperature, placing the hot
specimen in a fixture so that a stream of cold water impinges on one
end, and, after cooling to room temperature is completed, measuring
the hardness near the surface of the specimen at regularly spaced
intervals along its length. The data are normally plotted as hardness
versus distance from the quenched end.

HARDNESS
Resistance of a metal to plastic deformation, usually by indentation.
However, this may also refer to stiffness or temper, or to resistance
to scratching, abrasion, or cutting.
IMPACT TEST
A test to determine the behavior of materials when subjected to high
rates of loading, usually in bending, tension or torsion. The quantity
measured is the energy absorbed in breaking the specimen by a
single blow, as in the Charpy or Izod tests.
INGOT
A casting of a simple shape which can be used for hot working or
remelting.
KILLED STEEL
Steel treated with a strong deoxidizer to reduce oxygen to a level
where no reaction occurs between carbon and oxygen during
solidification.
LAP
A surface imperfection which appears as a seam. It is caused by the
folding over of hot metal, fins, or sharp corners and then rolling or
forging them into the surface but not welding them. Laps on tubes
can form from seams on piercing mill billets.
MACHINABILITY
This is a generic term for describing the ability of a material to be
machined. To be meaningful, machinability must be qualified in
terms of tool wear, tool life, chip control, and/or surface finish and
integrity. Overall machining performance is affected by a myriad of
variables relating to the machining operation and the workpiece. An
overall review is provided in the ASM Metals Handbook: Machinability,
Ninth Edition, Volume 16, 1989.
NORMALIZING
A treatment consisting of heating uniformly to temperature at least
100 °F above the critical range and cooling in still air at room
temperature. The treatment produces a recrystallization and
refinement of the grain structure and gives uniformity in hardness
and structure to the product.

102
 GLOSSARY - continued
PICKLING
An operation by which surface oxide (scale) is removed by chemical
action. Sulfuric acid is typically used for carbon and low-alloy steels.
After the acid bath, the steel is rinsed in water.
QUENCHING
A treatment consisting of heating uniformly to a predetermined
temperature and cooling rapidly in air or liquid medium to produce a
desired crystalline structure.
REDUCTION OF AREA
The difference, expressed as a percentage of original area, between
the original cross-sectional area of a tensile test specimen and the
minimum cross-sectional area measured after complete separation.
RIMMED STEEL
A low carbon steel having enough iron oxide to give a continuous
evolution of carbon monoxide during solidification giving a rim of
material virtually free of voids.
SCAB
An imperfection which is a flat piece of metal rolled into the steel
surface.
SEAM
A defect on the surface of a metal which appears as a crack.
Experience indicates that most seams are created during the cooling
or reheating of cast structures.
SEMI-KILLED STEEL
Incompletely deoxidized steel which contains enough dissolved
oxygen to react with the carbon to form carbon monoxide to offset
solidification shrinkage.
SPHEROIDIZE ANNEAL
A special type of annealing that requires an extremely long cycle.
This treatment is used to produce globular carbides and maximum
softness for best machinability in some analyses, or to improve cold
formability.
STRAND CASTING (Continuous Casting)
Operation in which a cast shape is continuously drawn through the
bottom of the mold as it solidifies. The length is not determined by
mold dimensions.
STRESS RELIEVE TEMPER
A thermal treatment to restore elastic properties and to minimize
distortion on subsequent machining or hardening operations. This
treatment is usually applied to material that has been heat treated
(quenched and tempered). Normal practice would be to heat to a
temperature 100°F lower than the tempering temperatures used to
establish mechanical properties and hardness. Ordinarily, no
straightening is performed after the stress relieve temper.

 GLOSSARY - continued
TEMPERING
A treatment consisting of heating uniformly to some predetermined
temperature under the critical range, holding at that temperature a A
designated period of time and cooling in air or liquid. This treatment A
is used to produce one or more of the following end results: A) to A
soften material for subsequent machining or cold working, B) to
improve ductility and relieve stresses resulting from prior treatment
or cold working, and C) to produce the desired mechanical proper- A
ties or structure in the second step of a double treatment.
TENSILE STRENGTH
In tensile testing, the ratio of maximum load to original cross- M
sectional area.
M
YIELD POINT
The first stress in a material, usually less than the maximum M
attainable stress, at which an increase in strain occurs without an M
increase in stress. If there is a decrease in stress after yielding, a M
distinction may be made between upper and lower yield points.
YIELD STRENGTH B
The stress at which a material exhibits a specified deviation from
proportionality of stress and strain. An offset of .2% is commonly B
used. B

ENGINEERING CONVERSION FACTORS
Explanation of Dimensional Units

All table entries are categorized according to their specific

combination of basic dimensions of Length [L], Mass [M] and Time [t].
For example, all units of force have the dimensions [M][L][t]-2. The
following better illustrates this convention:

Force = [M][L][t]-2

= (Mass) X (Acceleration)

1 kgf = (1 kg) X (9.80665 m/s2)

Example Conversion

Meters to Yards
(50 m) X (3.28084 ft/m) X (1/3 yd/ft) = 54.68066 yd

Significant Digits

The convention is to retain the number of digits which correctly infers

the known accuracy of the numbers involved. Normally, this means
using the same number of significant digits as occur in the original
number. For the above example, the answer would therefore be
rounded to 55 yards.

When the accuracy of the measurement is known, additional digits

may become significant. For example, if the measurement of 50
meters is known to be accurate to .01 meters (.0109 yards), then the
conversion result may be rounded to 54.58 yards.
