3.1 Definition:
3.1.1 embrinlement, n-the loss or partial loss of ductility in
a steel where an embrittled product characteristically fails by
fracture without appreciable deformation; types of embrittlement usually encountered in galvanizsd steel are related to
aging phenomena, cold workjng, and absorption ofhydrogen.

4. Factors in Embrittlement
4.1 Embrittlement or loss of ductility in steel is often
[455'C].
4.2 Hydrogen embrittlement may also occur due

6.1 and 6.2 will normally obviate the need for thermal
treament. However, if rcquired, ProPer thermal tneatuent shall
precede galvanizing of the steel. For heavy cold deformation
exemplified by cotd rolling, sheared edges, punched holes, or
cold_formed rods and bolts, subcrilisal annsaling at tempera_
tures from 1200 to 1300'F [650 to 705'C] should be employed.
For less severe cold deformation typified by cold bending, roll
forming, etc., it is advisable to limit the thermal treament to
stress rglieving at a maximum of 1100'F [595'C] to avoid
excessive grain growth or alternatively to fully normalize the
