- The substitution of electroplated Cd for a Zn-Ni coating is feasible regarding the axial fatigue strength. The fatigue strength of Cd and Zn-Ni threaded components was similar to the uncoated threaded base material. Therefore, there was no fatigue life debit due to the application of Cd and Zn-Ni coatings on steel threaded components. Furthermore, both smooth specimens coated with Cd and Zn-Ni have shown better fatigue life than the uncoated condition.
- The influence of the stress concentration factor was much greater than the influence of the electrodeposition process on the fatigue performance of AISI 4140 steel threaded components.
- The experimental fatigue life data showed a high contribution to reducing the fatigue life when there was contact between male and female threads, achieving a reduction of 58% with the nut/stud interface compared to threaded components without nuts.
- The studs (with stud/nut interface) had higher stress/strain values than the threaded specimens (without nut interface) in the elastoplastic FEA. The elastoplastic FEA showed the highest stress and strain concentration regions that correspond to the fatigue crack nucleation sites observed through SEM.
