This paper reviews some of the steel developments which offer cost-effective alternatives to conventional heat treatment for wrought components. These include miroalloyed or plain carbon steels, controlled cooled after forging or rolling to develop strength levels similar to normalised or hardened and tempered carbon and alloy steels, which have been applied successfully to a number of automative components. Another development is the use of direct quenching of carbon, boron-treated and low-alloy steels after hot working. This can promote improved properties compared with air-cooled microalloyed steels.
