The grain size of the material after heat treatment is more than or equal to 8.0; the reduction of area Z is more than or equal to 40% and the percentage elongation after fracture is more than or equal to 10% when the tensile strength is more than 1920MPa; a prepared spring has excellent corrosion and fatigue resistance, and the steel can be prepared into high-fatigue-strength springs of which the maximum design shear stress is 1180MPa.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a high-strength spring steel with excellent corrosion resistance, in particular to a material whose plasticity and toughness can still reach a high level when the tensile strength reaches above 1920 MPa and which has a strong resistance to hydrogen embrittlement so that the corrosion fatigue of the spring can be reduced. High-strength spring steel suitable for vehicles with improved service life. Background technique [0002] Spring steel is widely used in machinery manufacturing such as railways, automobiles, and construction machinery. Automobile manufacturing and railway vehicles are the largest users of spring steel. Due to the harsh working conditions of spring parts, the requirements for spring steel must be extremely strict. [0003] In recent years, with the prominent environmental problems such as global warming, in order to limit energy consumption and reduce carbon dioxide emissions, the weight reduction of automob...
