TI  - Effects of Tempering Heat Treatment Temperatures on Mechanical Properties of Carbon Steels
AB  - In the present study, the effects of tempering heat treatment temperatures on the mechanical properties of AISI 1020 and 1040 carbon steel types, which have a wide range of use in industry, were investigated. The samples were quenched at 850 °C, and then they were tempered at three different temperatures; 450, 550, and 650 °C, for 1 hour. Hardness measurements of the samples were performed to determine their mechanical properties. Besides, the samples were subjected to tensile and charpy impact tests. The samples were examined microstructurally, as well. The results reveal that the hardness, tensile strength, and yield strength values of both samples decreased when tempering heat treatment was applied after quenching. As the tempering temperature increased, these values tended to decrease. However, the impact value increased with the tempering heat treatment and increasing tempering temperature
