Which risk increases with extended forging hammer use?

💡 Explanation

Material work hardening intensifies because repeated plastic deformation introduces dislocations, increasing hardness and brittleness through dislocation entanglement, therefore increased cracking risk occurs, rather than creep, oxidation, or martensitic transformation dominant at higher temperatures or specific alloys.
