I'll re-read those..been years. Got the micrographs handy? You may wish to have a read here. http://www.struers.com/resources/ele...474/35art2.pdf It is important to view the microstructures and see what is there because terms mean different things to different folk....even those that have the parchment. Sorbite to some means fine lamallar pearlite to others it means tempered martensite. Such is the nature of things. Just a thought. Ric Last edited by Richard Furrer; 30th June 2007 at 03:00 AM.
