Effects of the surface quality of wire rods on descalability

$15.00

When high-carbon steel wire was subjected to acid descaling for 15 seconds or more after mechanical descaling, the drawing limit was nearly the same as when the acid bath descaling. It was confirmed that this is attributable to an improvement in adhesion of the drawing lubricant.
