Chrome vanadium steels usually contain 0.8 to 1.1% Cr, 0.25 to 0.35% C and < 0.25% V. It is ______________________?

Correct answer: A. Used for making axle & shafts of aeroplanes, automobiles and locomotives

  • A. Used for making axle & shafts of aeroplanes, automobiles and locomotives
  • B. Having poor fatigue resistance
  • C. Having poor toughness
  • D. Not helpful in producing cleaner steel due to oxidising action of vanadium

Explanation

Chrome-vanadium steel is valued for strong, fatigue-resistant shafts and axles in aircraft, automobiles and locomotives. Vanadium also acts as a deoxidiser, so option d is false, while the alloy is not generally described as having poor toughness or fatigue resistance.
