Abstract

In this work; the influence of heat treatment process on mechanical properties of mild steel 0.2% Carbon was studied. The mild steel tensile specimens were heat treated in an electric furnace at various temperatures from 750 to 950°C at constant holding time (2 hours); and then cooled in water. The mechanical properties such as ultimate tensile strength, yield strength, of the treated and without treated samples were determined using tensile tests. Results showed that, the mechanical properties of mild steel improved by various heat treatments (annealing and quenching) for a particular application.
