Describe how to work-harden a metal?
so your cheating on metal work merit badge
How do you make metal strong?
Alloy it or work harden it.
How do you heat treat or harden a metal chisel?
Heat the metal red hot. To harden the metal, cool it quickly by dunking it into cold water. To get a soft metal, let it cool slowly.
A process in which molten metal is poured into a mold and allowed to harden.?
Casting
What metal technique did the Assyrians learn from the Hittites?
The leaned techniques to harden iron weapons.
Describe how to work harden a metal?
Cut a straight piece of metal coat hanger, about 10 inches long. Bend it back and forth a few times. The point where the bend is will now be work hardened. *If you repeat this bending too many times, it will break because the hardening also makes it brittle.

What exactly is case hardening?
Case hardening, also referred to as surface hardening is the process of hardening a surface of a metal. It is done by surfacing the metal surface with a layer of metal on top of it, in order to harden it.
How are metal alloys created in manufacturing?
Metal alloys are primarily created by being heating, melting and blending, then allowed to cool and harden. This is common in alloy manufacturing plants.
Why do manufacturers heat treat metal?
Manufacturers heat treat metal for a variety of reason. One reason is to alter the physical appearance of the metal. Another reason is to harden the metal. They may even heat treat the metal in order to soften the metal to make it more malleable.
What happens to superheated metal when it is rapidly cooled?
It depends on the amount of carbon the metal has. If the metal has too much carbon than it will become brittle. If it doesn't then it will harden. (A lot of tools go through this process called Tempering)
