- I was rebuilding the clutch linkage on my work truck today (rebuilding the rod ends and turning slots back into round holes) and I started to wonder if a welded part that is cherry red will wear long

- Leaving the part to air cool slowly will generally result in lower hardness. It upon the alloy composition, temperature and cooling rate. Mild carbon steel doesn't get /real/ hard when quenched, but

- I would consider this carefully. The temperature of the steel when it is quenched is quite critical as well as the carbon content. If it is too hot it will become brittle (and it doesn't take much!)

- Depends on what the linkage is made out of. Most likely it is a low carbon steel. Not heat treatable. You could "case harden" the steel a little. One "old timers trick" is to carbonize the steel. Ta

- Low-carbon mild steel won't get very hard, or very brittle, now matter how quickly it is quenched. The three main factors to consider when heat-treating ferrous alloys are 1) alloy composition - how
