11SMnPb30 Material equıvalent and heat treatment about.

hello everyone,

firstly, I wish everyone succes in their work.

1.)How much hardness does 11SMnPb30 material get when hardened by induction (in hrc)?
2.) Standartta yok. İçinde ne kadar bakır olmalı.

I would like to ask for your support.
 
This steel is not intended for heat treatment. You probably should first google before asking the question. Your answer is in the attached link https://www.steelnumber.com/en/steel_composition_eu.php?name_id=156
Thanks for the reply
I know that this steel is not designed for heat treatment, but when it is heat treated, it hardens to a certain value. As far as I looked in all internet researches, it does not show the copper content. This is what I really want to ask how much it would be if it were.
For example, what is the effect of %0.268. Copper ?
 
With so little C this material will not respond to HT.
While some martensite will form it will be very lean in composition and therefore not very hard at all.
Cu will behave similar to Ni and reduce hardenability.
