Patent ID: 11761053

Abstract:
A railway wheel having, in mass %, C: 0.80 to 1.15%, Si: 1.00% or less, Mn: 0.10 to 1.25%, P: 0.050% or less, S: 0.030% or less, Al: 0.025 to 0.650%, N: 0.0030 to 0.0200%, Cr: 0 to 0.60%, and V: 0 to 0.12%, with the balance being Fe and impurities. The railway wheel has a hub part, a rim part including a tread and a flange, and a web part disposed between the hub part and the rim part. The area fraction of pearlite in the hub, web, and rim parts is 95% or more, and the amount of pro-eutectoid cementite is not more than 1.0 pieces/100 μm. The amount of pro-eutectoid cementite is calculated as (pieces/100 μm)=a total sum of the number of pieces of pro-eutectoid cementite which intersect with two diagonal lines in a square visual field of 200 μm×200 μm/(5.66×100 μm).
