IRON AND STEEL NOT MADE BRITTLE BIZ
CoLp.-Recent experiments Of DR.. Joule,
supported by the testimony Of Sir w. Fair
balm and Mr.. Spence, will go long way,
says the Pail Mall Gazette, towards dis
polling the popular fallacy that iron and
steel become brittle at low temperature.
1t is true that accidents from fractured
ties have Of late been very frequent, and
that the weather has been exceptionally
cold, but there is nothing to prove that these
two facts have any connection with each
other; on the contrary, the experiments Of
DR.. Joule lead to the conclusion that il
there be any difference between the eIasti-
city Of cold and hot metals it is rather In
favor Of the former. In fact, says DR.. Joule.
"frost does not make iron least or wrought)
or steel brittle, and accidents arise from the
neglect Of railway companies to submit
wheels, aXles, and other parts of their roll
ing stock to practical and sufficient test
before using them"
Mr.. Spence's observations led to the same
result. He subjected some iron bars to
trial Of strength ut 60 degrees and also ut
zero, and found that reduction Of temporal
ture, cdeter1S pari6us, increases the power
of resistance in cast iron. Sir W. Fair
BARN has given good deal of attention to
the subject, and is quite satisfied that
change of temperature has little or no
effect upon the strength of wrought iron.
He believes that the danger of broken tires
arises from the practice Of beating them to
dull red heat and shrinking them on to
the rim of the wheels, instead of turning
the rim Of the wheel and the inside of the
tire to a standard gauge, accurately calcu-
lated 10 give the required amount of tight
ness with larger margin of strength.
