The unit of hardenability is the same as of length.

As a result, heavier section components required greater hardenability.

Manganese is often added to improve the hardenability of low carbon steels.

This method is applied particularly to steels with low case hardenability, such as the seat of the valve.

The farther away from the quenched end that the hardness extends, the higher the hardenability.

This information is plotted on a hardenability graph.

By the end of the process, the two pieces of steel are fused together, but retain their differences in hardenability.

Consequently, the hardenability of the alloy is lowered.

Hardenability is low so W-grade tool steels must be quenched in water.

These alloys increase the steels' hardenability, and thus require a less severe quenching process.

Low-alloy steels are usually used to achieve better hardenability, which in turn improves its other mechanical properties.

An "H" suffix can be added to any designation to denote hardenability is a major requirement.

The main purpose for alloying most elements with steel is to increase its hardenability and to decrease softening under temperature.

It provided alternating layers of differing hardenability.

Alloy steels have a better hardenability, so they can through-harden and do not require case hardening.

Similarly, the hardenability is limited by the continuous martensitic microstructure formed when cooled very fast.

The hardenability of a metal alloy is the depth up to which a material is hardened after putting through a heat treatment process.

Due to the high alloy content maraging steels have a high hardenability.

Since cementite is much harder than pearlite, the alloy has greater hardenability at a cost in the ductility.

Subsequent to cooling a flat surface is ground on the test piece and the hardenability is then found by measuring the hardness along the bar.

Carbide-forming alloys provide the necessary abrasion resistance, hardenability, and hot-working characteristics.

A material's work hardenability can be predicted by analyzing a stress-strain curve, or studied in context by performing hardness tests before and after a process.

This value can be roughly approximated as 65% of the total case depth; however the chemical composition and hardenability can affect this approximation.

The excessive hardenability that can occur when spot welding HSLA steel can be an issue.

The following carbon equivalent formula is used to determine if a spot weld will fail in high-strength low-alloy steel due to excessive hardenability:
