1. Hardening, Tempering and Heat Treatment
In this Valuable book Tubal Cain takes the reader beyond the superficial or
the simply practical with explanations of the composition of steel, its
additives, and the effects of different temperatures on its constituents. With
a grasp of what changes are actually taking place in the metal the care
needed in following the practical processes described becomes under-
standable and will lead to better and more consistent results. Flame, salt
bath and furnace heating are detailed, with information on accurate
measurement or recognition of temperature levels.
For the average small workshop operative or model engineer the
discourses on tool material, hardening and tempering will be of most use,
and in this connection this book replaces the earlier “Hardening and
Tempering Engineers’ Tools”, providing a broader-based, more detailed
and up to date examination of the subject.
