Residual Stress<br />

Caused by non-uniform non uniform deformation during cold<br />

drawing<br />

Light reductions<br />

Longitudinal<br />

Longitudinal-surface surface residual stresses are compressive;<br />

bulk bulk is is in in tension<br />

tension<br />

Improve fatigue life<br />

Heavier Heavier reductions<br />

Surface stresses in tension; bulk in compression<br />

Can be significant cause of stress stress-corrosion corrosion<br />

cracking over time<br />

May cause part to warp warp if a layer is removed (as<br />

part of of a forming forming operation such as as slitting, slitting<br />

machining, grinding)
