What is the reason that the diameter 130-45 round steel will break after welding?

Answer:

You say this is a better situation, generally in a few days after welding on the crack, the most afraid of the key parts, to be a major accident. No. 45 steel can not be welded, such as welding, it is necessary to preheat before welding and after welding heat treatment.
Steel No. 45 belongs to medium carbon steel. Because of its high carbon content, it has poor weldability, but its comprehensive property is good. If welding is needed, it needs to be preheated before welding and heat treated after welding to reduce its internal stress. The more commonly used weldability is No. 20 steel. In order to improve the performance of No. 20 steel, heat treatment is usually applied to its surface.
