Abstract: A method for manufacturing a tow hook assembly begins with heating a first steel blank to within a range of 2200° F. and 2300° F. to create a first heated steel blank. A second steel blank is heated to within the range of 2200° F. at 2300° F. to create a second heated steel blank. The first heated steel blank is forged into a tow hook. The second heated steel blank is forged into a flange plate. The tow hook in the flange plate are welded together to form the tow hook assembly. This method reduces waste by minimizing the size of the first and second steel blanks.

Abstract: A fuel delivery rail includes a rail body having an outer diameter and an inner diameter. The inner diameter defines an interior channel. The fuel delivery rail includes an input port providing access to the interior channel for fuel to enter the interior channel. A plurality of output ports allow the fuel to exit the interior channel, wherein the fuel deliver rail is fabricated from a microalloy steel comprising the following composition by weight: 0.28%<carbon<0.31%; 0.65%<silicon<0.80%; 1.40%<manganese<1.50%; 0.0%<phosphorus<0.015%; 0.012%<sulfur<0.025%; 0.15%<chromium<0.25%; 0.12%<vanadium<0.15%; 0.0%<molybdenum<0.05%; 0.0%<nickel<0.10%; 0.008%<titanium<0.015%; 0.015%<nitrogen<0.020%; 0.0%<aluminum<0.01%; 0.0%<copper<0.25%, the remainder being iron and impurities inherent in processing.
