Technology

Which consequence results when forging connecting rods without proper quenching?

A)Increased susceptibility to hydrogen embrittlement
B)Elevated residual tensile stress develops
C)Enhanced resistance to fatigue cracking
D)Improved dimensional stability at temperature

💡 Explanation

Elevated residual tensile stress develops because the uneven cooling lacks martensite formation afforded by proper quenching during forging; therefore, tensile stress remains, rather than compressive stress improving component performance.
