Tempering of a material does not improve its____________________?

Correct answer: A. Machinability

  • A. Machinability
  • B. Toughness
  • C. Internal stress level
  • D. Softness

Explanation

Tempering relieves internal stresses, reduces hardness and improves toughness, while machinability is chiefly improved by processes such as annealing. Therefore, machinability is not regarded as a direct improvement due to tempering in this standard classification.
