Evaluation of Mechanical Properties of Wire Rod by Shear Punch Test

$15.00

For the first time, a miniaturized specimen testing technique, “shear punch test (SPT),” was implemented to study the mechanical properties of wire rods. SPT can predict tensile properties as well as localized variations in the mechanical properties. Therefore, the discs from the wire rods were tested at the center and mid-radius to investigate the variation in their shear strength correlating with their microstructures and possibly the chemistry. This paper presents those results.
