Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2022263887A1] Method for producing a steel part comprising by weight: 0.05% ≤ C ≤ 0.15%, 0.01% ≤ Si ≤ 1%, 1.2% ≤ Mn ≤ 2%, 0.1% ≤ Cr ≤ 2%, 0.001 ≤ Al ≤ 0.1%, 0.003% ≤ N ≤ 0.01%, 0 ≤ S ≤ 0.015%, 0 ≤ P ≤ 0.015%,0% ≤ Ni ≤ 1%,0% ≤ B ≤ 0.01%, 0% ≤ Mo ≤ 1%, 0% ≤ Ti ≤ 0.04 %, 0% ≤ Nb ≤ 0.1%, 0 ≤ V ≤ 0.5% the remainder consisting of iron and unavoidable impurities, annealing this semi-finished product at an annealing temperature strictly lower than the Ac1 temperature of the steel; cooling it down to room temperature; cold forming the semi-finished product into a cold formed product; subjecting the cold formed product to a heat treatment comprising heating the cold formed product to a heat treatment temperature greater than or equal to the full austenitisation temperature Ac3 of the steel; and quenching to room temperature; optionally reheating the product at a holding temperature from 180°C to 400°C for a time from 15 minutes to 2 hours.
