Definitions
- the present invention relates to an element for percussive rock drilling with new and improved fatigue properties and production economy properties as well as to a method for manufacturing an element.
- percussive rock drilling shock waves and rotation are transferred from a drill machine via one or more rods or tubes to a cemented carbide equipped drill bit.
- the drill steel i.e. the material in bits, rods, tubes, sleeves and shank adapters, is during drilling subjected to corrosive attack. This applies in particular to underground drilling where water is used as flushing medium and where the environment in general is humid.
- corrosion fatigue arises. This is a common cause for failure of the drill steel.
- a low-alloyed, case hardened steel is normally used for percussive rock drilling.
- Case hardening requires carburization of a surface layer in order to create compressive stresses in the impact surfaces, which give certain impeding effects on fatigue and improved wear resistance for the threaded portions. Case hardening is a time consuming operation and takes a large part of the cost for manufacturing of the drill steel.
- An abrasion resistant steel (balance Fe), as shown in EP-A1 -0527276, contains as basic elements from 0.05 to 0.45 wt.% C, 0.1 to 1.0 wt.% Si, 0.1 to 2.0 wt.% Mn, 0.05 to 1.5 wt.% Ti, these contributing to an enhancement of abrasion resistance without excessively increasing the hardness of the steel. According to that document it is not necessary to enhance the hardness of the abrasion resistant steel by transforming the microstructure of the steel to a martensite which is the conventional way to enhance the abrasion resistance of steel.
- One object of the present invention is to provide an elongated element for percussive rock drilling, which further improves production economy at modern mining.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide a method for manufacturing of percussive drill steels, which implies substantial reduction in time for heat treatment.
- Fig. 1 shows a microstructure from the core of a low-alloyed steel in a magnification of 1000x viewed in light optical microscope.
- Fig. 2 shows a microstructure from the core of a drill steel according to the invention in a magnification of 1000x viewed in light optical microscope.
- the invention relates to steels for percussive rock drilling made in an alloy with primarily martensitic basic matrix. Through the martensitic structure sufficient strength and core hardness for the application are obtained.
- the tensile strength should be 1000-1700 MPa and the core hardness 375-500 Vickers.
- D is the desired case depth in mm and T is the temperature in Kelvin (K).
- K Kelvin
- the case depth is the measure used for the carburized depth and is defined as the depth where the hardness is lower than 550 Vickers.
- the desired case depth D depends in turn on the dimension of the rod, according to the formula
- R is the diameter of the rod in mm.
- the drill steel according to the present invention shall in carburized condition have a surface hardness of more than 400 Vickers, preferably 500-800 Vickers in order to give good resistance against abrasion caused by for example the motion of the thread joints, drill cuttings or contact with the surrounding rock (the bore wall).
- the carburized layer with increased hardness has a thickness of 0.5-2.0 mm.
- Steel adapted for drill steel according to the present invention has the following composition in wt.%:
- Mn ⁇ 2 preferably 0.5-1.5
- Ff 0.07, preferably >0.1 and Ff ⁇ 5, preferably ⁇ 3 and most preferably ⁇ 1
- At least one of the grain growth impeding substances shall be present in the intervals below:
- one or both threaded ends can be made according to the invention and be welded or be joined on a rod or a tube of another material.
- the present invention also relates to a method for manufacturing an elongated element for percussive rock drilling comprising at least one connection means, such as a thread and flush channel. At least the connection means is made in a steel with a structure comprising primarily martensite. The method comprises the following steps:
- the invention also relates to an elongated element for percussive rock drilling comprising at least one connection means, such as a thread, and a flush channel, wherein at least the thread is made in a steel with a structure comprising primarily martensite (i.e. 55-98 by volume% martensite), where the steel comprises at least one intentionally added substance such as Al, Ti, Nb and V, to impede grain growth during heat-treatment.
- connection means such as a thread
- a flush channel wherein at least the thread is made in a steel with a structure comprising primarily martensite (i.e. 55-98 by volume% martensite), where the steel comprises at least one intentionally added substance such as Al, Ti, Nb and V, to impede grain growth during heat-treatment.
- the intentionally added substances can in too high total content have negative influences on the toughness and machinability of the steel.
- Extension rods were manufactured from five steel alloys with compositions as disclosed below, where alloys 1-4 correspond to steels according to the invention and alloy 5 corresponds to prior art.
- the alloys 1-4 each have an intentional addition of one of the substances Al, Ti, V, and Nb, respectively, whereas the remaining three lie at impurity levels.
- Fig. 1 shows the microstructure of the core of Alloy 5 carburized for 5 hours at 960°C and
- Fig. 2 shows the microstructure of the core of Alloy 2 according to the present invention carburized for 5 hours at 960°C.
- alloys 1-4 grain size values K according to ASTM are larger than or equal to ASTM 7.5 at all heat treatment tests, which show that drill steels according to the invention obtain sufficient case depth without unwanted grain growth up to 1000°C.
