Thanks, met. Will dump a copy to my e-reader for some bedtime reading

Wow. There is stuff there, like the mechanical properties data and the case and core hardness data that I have never seen anywhere before.

Thanks George! It took me about 10 seconds to download that at work-- just amazing what can be done with the internet for archiving older references like this.

That is cool link.

Maybe I'm just having trouble reading, but anyone know what year that is from?

 

[metengr]

I would say around 1960.

I know it's older than my 1980 edition that I still keep handy. It was published before 5-digit zip codes were established though. It is really neat to see the old terminology - my book doesn't define troostite or scleroscope!

And 90% of the steel made was open hearth.So, yes, around 1960.
