The invention discloses 15.8 grade ultrahigh strength
delayed fracture resistant steel for fasteners and a manufacturing method of the 15.8 grade ultrahigh strength
delayed fracture resistant steel. The 15.8 grade ultrahigh strength
delayed fracture resistant steel comprises, by
mass, 0.40%-0.50% of C, 0.15%-0.35% of Si, 0.50%-1.00% of Mn, smaller than or equal to 0.015% of P, smaller than or equal to 0.010% of S, 0.90%-1.20% of Cr, 0.10%-0.20% of Ni, 0.70%-0.90% of Mo, 0.20%-0.40% of V, 0.02%-0.08% of Nb, 0.010%-0.020% of Ti, 0.020%-0.040% of Al, 0.0040%-0.0080% of N and the balance Fe and inevitable
impurity elements. The manufacturing process comprises the steps of converter
smelting, LF refining, RH vacuum degassing,
continuous casting, heating and cogging, flaw detection and coping, high-speed wire rolling, follow-up treatment and the like, a lower
bainite structure is obtained after a
wire rod is subjected to annealing,
wire drawing, cold heading and isothermal
quenching heat treatment, and the mechanical properties of the lower
bainite structure are as follows: the tensile strength is 1500-1670 MPa, the yield strength is larger than or equal to 1200 MPa, the
ductility is larger than or equal to 9%, and the
percentage reduction of area is larger than or equal to 48%; and the material has excellent delayed fracture resistance, and is suitable for high-end fields such as
aerospace,
rail transit and the like.
