Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present disclosure relates to a wire rod used for automobile engine bolts and the like, and more particularly, to a wire rod having improved hydrogen delayed fracture resistance, a method for manufacturing the same, a high strength bolt using the same, and a method for manufacturing the bolt.BACKGROUND ART
[0002] in accordance with the recent trend for weight reductions and high functionalization in automobiles, requirements for driving parts, in particular, engine parts such as bolts and the like, to have high strength, have increased in order to reduce energy consumption. Currently used high strength bolts are manufactured to have a tensile strength of 1200 MPa through quenching and tempering processes, using alloyed steels such as SCM435, SCM440, and the like. However, in the bolts having a tensile strength of 1200 MPa or greater, since delayed fractures may be easily caused due to hydrogen, the uses of wire rods for manufacturing ultrahigh strength bolts ...
