Abstract: Longitudinal cracks were found in the 35CrMo steel cylinder pin produced by a standard parts factory during tensile sample manufacturing for re-examination. The causes of the cracking were found out by analyzing the chemical composition, microstructure, crack and fracture morphology of the cylinder pin. The results show that the cracking of the 35CrMo steel cylinder pin is the longitudinal crack occurred during quenching. The cracking is caused by slightly overheating and coarse inclusions in longitudinal direction. This kind of problem can be avoided by adjusting heat treatment process and selecting pure raw materials.

Key words: 35CrMo steel cylinder pin, longitudinal cracking, residual stress, quenching
