Overview

Excerpt from Manufacture and Uses of Alloy Steels The Object Of this monograph is to give briefly information of present value relating to the manufacture and uses Of the various commercial alloy steels, with the hope of stimulating the demand for such steels and extending their practical use. Alloy steels are included in the so-called special steels, but as the latter term is Often used in the mills to designate broadly any steels intended for purposes other than those served by the regular product, it has seemed best to use the more specific term Of alloy steels in this monograph. Alloy steels are bringing about a series Of revolutions in various industrial fields in which steel plays an important part. Most elements that could be procured in sufficient quantity have been alloyed with iron in various proportions, either alone or in combination with others, in the search for useful alloy steels. Those steels that have gained and maintained for themselves a place in current use are discussed in this monograph. Some Of them have had an ephemeral life Of usefulness which would no doubt have been prolonged had not some other more satisfactory steel been developed.
