  • Publication number: 20230399729
    Abstract: As a burring processed member able to suppress the formation of fatigue cracks in a burring part, one having a structure satisfying the following relations (1) to (3) is disclosed: 3?Ra?100 . . . (1), 3.0<h . . . (2), 24+r?[TS/(40+0.28×Ra)]<h . . . (3), where, “Ra” is an arithmetic mean roughness (?m) of the burring end face, “h” is a height (mm) from the first surface to the burring end face, “r” is a radius of curvature (mm) of the curved wall part, and “TS” is the tensile strength (MPa) of the sheet-shaped part.

  • Publication number: 20220033927
    Abstract: Provided is a hot rolled steel sheet comprising a predetermined chemical composition, and a metallic structure comprising, by area ratio, pearlite: 90 to 100%, pseudo pearlite: 0 to 10%, and pro-eutectoid ferrite: 0 to 1%, wherein the pearlite has an average lamellar spacing of 0.20 ?m or less, and the pearlite has an average pearlite block size of 20.0 ?m or less. Provided is a method for producing a hot rolled steel sheet comprising heating a slab to 1100° C. or more, hot rolling where an exit side temperature of finishing rolling is 820 to 920° C., primary cooling the steel sheet down to an Ae1 point by an average cooling rate of 40 to 80° C./s, then secondary cooling the steel sheet from the Ae1 point down to a coiling temperature by an average cooling rate of less than 20° C./s, and coiling the steel sheet at a coiling temperature of 540 to 700° C.
